Data Models & Simulation Assessment Experiments Represent reality Study the techno- economic systems Appraise the impacts (risk, economic) European dimension Analyse key technologies
SMART ELECTRICITY SYSTEMS & INTER-OPERABILITY International (ANL) Industry (ENTSOE, EURELECTRIC) R&D Security: technical, economic, social and political factors EU Grid simulator Real-time simulator Interoperability lab Smart Grids Projects in EU Cost benefit analysis of Smart Meters and Smart Grids
smart grid inventory • 2012 JRC Inventory of Smart Grids in Europe: • 281 Smart Grid projects in EU27 • € 1.8 billion overall investment By far the most investment comes from organisations in EU15 countries. EU12 countries2 are lagging behind, with consistently low investment over the years.
