SHIFT2DC

The SHIFT to Direct Current (SHIFT2DC) project has the goal of creating smarter, more efficient, and environmentally friendly energy infrastructures. This project involves a consortium of 33 entities, including 30 beneficiaries and thirty-three partners, including affiliated and associated partners, from twelve countries, under the coordination of the Portuguese Research & Innovation Institute INESC-ID.

AHEAD

The AHEAD project aims to develop a simulation environment for optimally locating EV charging stations and efficiently using power grid resources in urban and rural areas. Utilizing AI models, it includes spatial and power grid layers to place chargers where needed and where the grid can support them. Smart charging algorithms will be tested to minimize network impact and ensure economic benefits. The project involves diverse partners from the EV value chain and focuses on user experience and cybersecurity.

EgameLab

Portugal, in the sector of gaming has been known for its fragmentation and difficulty in leveraging despite the great potential and highly-skilled human resources. Therefore, the eGames Lab aims to address technological specific and operational challenges identified in Portugal, which will leverage the competitiveness of the members and position them in a worldwide context.
