Workshop on Energy Flexibility in Smart Buildings and Smart Grids
December 10 2021
Workshop Registration: Please register at the following link.
Description
The CENERGETIC/BeNeFiCE Workshop is an integrated event labelled “Workshop on Energy Flexibility in Smart Buildings and Smart Grids”. This workshop was held on the premises of School of Engineering (ISEP) of Polytechnic of Porto, namely in GECAD – Research Group on Intelligent Engineering, and Computing for Advanced Innovation and Development.
Participants from UNESP, São Paulo joined the discussion and presented their ideas on the topics of the project. CENERGETIC is a FCT-funded project proposed by GECAD/ISEP in cooperation with UNESP from Brazil that aims to address a relevant societal problem by improving the integration of renewable energy resources and electric vehicles (EVs) in smart grids. BeNeFiCE is a project, proposed by GECAD/ISEP that aims to address a relevant societal problem by improving the integration of renewable energy resources, consumption flexibility, storage system, EVs, and flexible contracted power in collective residential buildings.
The workshop was an opportunity to discuss some of the developments of both projects and get to know the opinion of experts working on related topics and issues. This workshop was free and welcomed the public audience from students, professors, practitioners in the industry to join the discussion.
