Supported the 1st phase pilots

• Remote inspection with drones: The pilot focuses on deploying drones for remote inspection of facilities used for flexible energy production, consumption, and storage.

• Remote monitoring of a self-sustained pico-eNodeB: The pilot implements outage-free power supply for pico-eNodeB and remote monitoring and control of the photovoltaic (PV) system with a battery.

• Smart EV charging: The pilot demonstrates new EV charging services to be deployed at work and home. The focus is on interactions between the consumer, charging point, aggregators, and TSO to support more detailed metering, demand response, and load balancing.

• Remote monitoring of heating, cooling and air conditioning (HVAC): The pilot implements a real-time multi-point metering system to monitor energy consumption of smart cooling and air conditioning systems in buildings.
