An excellent exchange this week with Executive Vice-President Maroš Šefčovič at the RHC Impact Hub meeting in Brussels. Two topics were in focus: European Funding and Resilience. The European Hydrogen Bank’s (EHB) next auction round presents itself as an opportunity for both.   Funding: There is a need to significantly increase budget and kick off a regular and visible rhythm for subsequent auction rounds. Also, allowing awarded projects for cumulation with supply and demand-side support can unlock already committed funds.   Resilience: Integrating three simple non-price criteria for value creation in Europe (cells/electrodes, surface treatment, and stacking) into the EHB auction can strengthen the European technology platform and invite further investments to Europe.   Renewable Hydrogen Coalition, Olivia Breese, Håkon Volldal, Ana Quelhas, Peter Friis, Kim Hedegaard, François Paquet, Philipp Offenberg, Pierre TARDIEU, Josche Muth, Constantine Levoyannis

Thanks UNECE Sustainable Energy, Andrei Covatariu, Dario Liguti, Iva Brkic and Igor L. for this opportunity to speak at the Sustainable Energy Week 2023, Building Resident Energy Systems, in Geneva on September 14th, covering Sustainable Efficiencies and Digitalisation in Energy. I will be highlighting the importance of sizing and monitoring low carbon energy systems using frequently measured data through IOT combined with AI (AIoT) to sense, analyse and take actions. Future Energy systems are complex, multi-energies and multi-dimensional combining heterogenous technologies and sophisticated predictive analytics and economics. Like a body cannot act properly without a brain thinking and taking decisions anytime, Energy systems cannot run efficiently without real time digital decisions. #aiot #energyefficiency #renewableenergy #decarbonization #storage #batterystorage #hydrogen #geothermal #biomass #windpower #solarenergy #digitalagency #digitaltransformation Envision Digital Council of Engineers for the Energy Transition

We're living in a world that is shifting and changing faster than ever before.
