On 16 October 2024, FlexCHESS, PARMENIDES and InterSTORE will jointly host a cluster webinar with the participation of the Int:net project. This event will focus on the critical role of interoperability in advancing renewable energy communities and integrating distributed resources, such as hybrid storage systems. 

Throughout the webinar, experts from participating projects will explore how seamless communication and integration across various energy technologies and systems can enhance efficiency, reliability, and sustainability in renewable energy initiatives. 

Nikolaj Candellari, Project Manager and Data Scientist at CyberGrid, will present the InterSTORE project. His presentation will address the challenges of connecting community assets using the new IEEE2030.5 protocol, developing optimal strategies for these assets, and outlining the process for implementing these strategies. 

The PARMENIDES project will be presented by Dr. Mark Stefan, Research Engineer and Thematic Coordinator for Power System Digitalisation at AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH, along with Vieri Emiliani, Head of Innovation at Maps Group. Their presentation will provide an overview of the PARMENIDES project and the development of energy management systems. 

Dr. Habib Nasser, an expert in Mechatronics and Smart Systems, will present the FLEXCHESS project. His presentation will explore how the interoperability of hybrid storage systems and flexible loads is crucial for enhancing the profitability and sustainability of energy communities. Nasser will discuss how this integrated approach optimizes resources, supports local energy trading, and contributes to broader sustainability goals by reducing carbon emissions and improving grid resilience. 

Following the presentations, Ludwig Karg, co-owner and member of the management at B.A.U.M. Consult GmbH, from Int:net project, will moderate a panel discussion on interoperability, energy communities, and hybrid energy storage systems.
