UBITECH participated at the ICT for Energy Efficiency Contractors meeting that was organized by the Executive Agency for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (EASME) at 23-24 of May 2016. The main objective of the meeting was the exchange of information and identification of synergies among the ICT for Energy Efficiency funded Horizon 2020 projects of the 2014 and 2015 calls, as well as the collection of views regarding challenges that have to be faced in the future. UBITECH participated on the meeting on behalf of the ENTROPY H2020 project.
Upon the presentation of the work envisaged or work in progress of the related projects, open discussion among the participants was realized leading to a set of potential synergies, plans for joined activities and sharing of best practices (tools, consumer engagement methodologies, etc.). Such synergies include the definition of common evaluation methodologies and incentives for behavioural change and the interconnection of the proposed information models (e.g. semantic models, ontologies) for representing the collected information in the set of deployments. Furthermore, a workshop is going to be organized by ENTROPY targeting at collecting contributions from all the relevant projects, included any common activities realized.
