HYPERTECH has been assigned a 4-year framework contract lasting through December 2023 to consult the Preparatory Commission for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) on user experience (UX) and web application design issues. The contract also includes the provision of specialized recommendations and know-how regarding best practices and technologies used in web design.

HYPERTECH Energy Labs have been awarded a new R&D contract from the European Commission (Project Acronym: PARITY). PARITY addresses the “structural inertia” of DGs by delivering a transactive flexibility framework that will increase durability and efficiency of the electrical grid, while simultaneously enabling the adoption of more RES through enhanced realtime control of DER Flexibility combined with novel Active Network Management functionalities.

HYPERTECH, as the leader of a European consortium which also includes E3-Modelling and Global Climate Forum, has signed a contract with the Directorate-General for Energy (DG ENER) of the European Commission. During this 15-month contract, the consortium will analyse and assess the potential risks to EU’s security of energy supply up to year 2050 in view of energy sector integration and clean-energy transition at the EU level.

HYPERTECH was assigned a three-year framework contract to host and maintain the ESPON website, the ESPON EGTC e-Tendering Platform and all the existing and new ESPON web applications and tools as well as provide support regarding website related issues and web development of new functionalities and applications.

HYPERTECH Energy Labs have been awarded a new R&D contract from the European Commission (Project Acronym: FLEXIGRID). The main goal of FLEXIGRID is to allow the distribution grid to operate in a secure and stable manner when a large share of variable generation electricity sources is connected to low and medium voltage grids. To do so, FLEXIGRID proposes a three-level approach aiming at Flexibility, Reliability, and Economic Efficiency through the development of innovative hardware and software solutions.

HYPERTECH (project coordinator of MERLON H2020 project) actively participated at the workshop on Local Energy Communities, organised on 15 May 2019 in Brussels by the H2020 projects COMPILE, MERLON, MUSE GRIDS, STORY with the support of the BRIDGE initiative.

HYPERTECH Energy Labs have been awarded a new R&D contract from the European Commission (Project Acronym: IELECTRIX ) focusing on the development and demonstration of of solutions and tools for the optimisation of local energy networks to support a smooth development of Local Energy Communities (LECs) and which have a high replication potential in Europe and in India since allowing additional renewables to generate and distribute electricity at lower costs than a traditional grid reinforcement.

HYPERTECH Energy Labs have been awarded a new R&D contract from the European Commission (Project Acronym: BIMERR). BIMERR will design and develop an ICT-enabled Renovation 4.0 toolkit comprising tools for AEC stakeholder support throughout the energy efficiency renovation process of existing buildings. It will enforce semantic interoperability among its own tools as well as with third-party ICT tools to enable seamless BIM creation and information exchange among the AEC community in an effort to boost the rapid adoption of BIM in renovating of the existing EU building stock.

HYPERTECH Energy Labs have been awarded a new R&D contract from the European Commission (Project Acronym: MERLON). MERLON introduces an integrated modular local energy management framework for the holistic operational optimisation of local energy systems in presence of high shares of volatile distributed renewable energy sources. Optimisation in MERLON applies to multiple levels spanning optimal coordination of local generation as well as flexibility provision to facilitate maximum integration of renewable energy, avoidance of curtailment and satisfaction of balancing/ancillary grid needs.
