Wrapping up an insightful day at the #COPOWERproject thematic seminar with a visit to the @oamk_ouas Hybrid Laboratory!🚀

🔋 A huge thank you to @UniOulu for hosting two fantastic days full of #innovation and #collaboration🌱

[COPOWER @COPOWERproject]

🌍 Day 2 of #COPOWERproject meeting begins with a thematic seminar on innovative DER pilot plans:

🔋Fabian Sander, @centriaamk, 🇫🇮: A biogas plant + battery storage system integrated into a #VirtualPowerPlant to balance #energy demand and supply using #smart software.

[COPOWER @COPOWERproject]

More from #COPOWERproject seminar:

🏘️Paul Early, @donegalcouncil, 🇮🇪: A microgrid system for an estate of former Army barracks, integrating DERs to balance with the main grid.
🔮Bjarti Thomsen, Nólsoy, 🇫🇴: AI-based control of #renewableenergy for efficient heating.🌍

[COPOWER @COPOWERproject]

👉#COPOWER partners also visited Jahotec Ltd, a farm-scale biogas plant, & Volter Ltd to explore the “Walter” CHP unit which produces electricity by gasifying #biomass & uses waste heat for agriculture, industrial processes, underfloor heating, or even preheating water! @UniOulu

[COPOWER @COPOWERproject]

😁At the #COPOWERproject meeting hosted by @UniOulu, partners are focusing on Distributed Energy Resources (DER) pilot updates and integration strategies.

⚡️Insightful presentations, collaboration, and feedback are driving us forward! 💡🌱
