The world is facing unprecedented challenges in the form of climate change and the urgent need to transition to a sustainable energy future. In order to tackle these challenges, we must harness the power of research and innovation to drive forward the development of new technologies, processes, and solutions.This session, organised by the ETIP Smart Networks for Energy Transition (SNET) and BRIDGE - two European Commission's initiatives - will bring on the stage ten H2020 and Horizon Europe projects. The panel session will be divided into two separate breakdown sessions along the topics of:


  1. Flexibility and retail market options for DSO - Replicable solutions for a cross sector compliant energy ecosystem
  2. Consumer engagement and demand response (including interoperable smart homes and grids) and decarbonising systems in energy and geographical Islands.


In each of the two breakout sessions, panelists will take part in an interactive discussion along the three topics listed below. The panel discussion will be followed by a Q&A session where questions from the audience will be collected. Join us to enhance your understanding of the current state of energy-related areas and to identify where the gaps and needs for future research and innovation priorities lie!
