SynGRID project aims to enhance institutional and regional innovation in Widening countries through the capitalisation of outcomes from completed Horizon 2020 and ongoing Horizon Europe projects. The combination of valorisation of research results with the focus on enhancing the management, observability and controllability of low-voltage grids considering the increased integration of Renewable Energy Sources, will…
The increasing share of inverter-based resources (IBRs) into the power system has brought stability challenges that hinder further IBR integration and energy sector decarbonization. These instabilities relate to the inverters operating as either current sources or voltage sources, neither of which is appropriate for all conditions. UNIFORM aims to bridge this gap by unifying these…
Reliability, Resilience, and Defense Technology for the Grid R2D2 (Reliability, Resilience, and Defense Technology for the Grid) is an EU-funded Horizon project launched in October 2022 and scheduled to conclude in September 2025 (36 months duration). The consortium comprises 16 beneficiaries across Europe, including ICCS. R2D2 strategic goal is to improve the resilience and reliability…
Climate-resilient regions through systemic solutions and innovations ARSINOE shapes the pathways to resilience by bringing together Systems Innovation Approach (SIA) and Climate Innovation Window (CIW), to build an ecosystem for climate change adaptation solutions. Within the ARSINOE ecosystem, pathways to solutions are co-created and co-designed by stakeholders, who can then select either existing CIW technologies,…
Learning-Driven and Evolved Radio for 6G Communication Systems 6G-LEADER aims at evolving the PHY and RAN aspects of 6G communication networks by relying on the following pillars: 1) MLempowered PHY algorithms with predictive capabilities towards fully autonomous operation; 2) full-duplex transceivers employing novel sparse antenna arrays and advanced digital self-interference cancellation; 3) non-orthogonal and random…
TwinOps and vehicle specific Digital Twin for Software Defined EVs TWIN LOOP is a Horizon Europe project that aims to develop an Open Framework for TwinOps for EVs along with a suite of digital tools aimed at continuously improving Energy Consumption, Hardware Costs, Driver Experience and Vehicle Resiliency across the four stages of vehicle lifecycle….
MUlti-Sensor Inferred Trajectories (MUSIT) The abundance of tracking sensors in recent years has led to the generation of high-frequency and high-volume streams of data, including vessels, vehicles’ tracking data, smartwatches, cameras, and earth observation sensors. However, there are cases where the trajectory of a moving object has gaps, errors, or is unavailable. However, a vast…
A comprehensive trustworthy framework for connected machine learning and secure interconnected AI solutions The contemporary AI landscape demands a holistic framework ensuring security across the supply chain and entire AI lifecycle. Despite existing adversarial attack techniques, a comprehensive end-to-end flow for identifying threats and vulnerabilities with associated risks is lacking. The EU, through initiatives like the…
After nearly four years of collaborative effort, the AEOLUS consortium is proud to announce the successful conclusion of the project. This EU-funded initiative, part of the Horizon 2020 program, brought together experts, organizations and institutions from across Europe to develop next-generation photonic gas sensors. By leveraging Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs) and machine learning, AEOLUS introduced…
