Interconnect Project

Interconnect is a European project which aims to develop and demonstrate advanced solutions for the digitalisation of the electricity sector. The solutions developed within the scope of InterConnect will allow a digitalisation of the power system based on an Internet of Things (IoT) architecture which, by including digital technologies (artificial intelligence, Blockchain, Cloud and Big Data), ensures the interoperability between equipment, systems and privacy/cybersecurity of user data. The energy users in buildings, whether residential or of services, the operators of the distribution grid and the energy distributors will have the opportunity to take advantage of these solutions. The proposed solutions will be validated through 7 scale pilots. Portugal, France, Greece, Germany, Belgium, Italy and the Netherlands. InterConnect is coordinated by the Institute for Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science (INESC TEC) and includes the participation of 56 entities from 11 European countries. This project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under Grant agreement No 857237.
