๐ฅ Real-world impact with #WeForming!
At Smart East in Karlsruhe, FZI is testing smart energy tech (PV, EVs, batteries) all managed for grid stability.
DEMO No.6 shows how intelligent systems can power Europeโs energy future. #SmartEnergy

Today #WeForming joined REHVAโs expert workshop on EU Taxonomy & Standardisation with 9 Horizon projects. David Pera (LIST) shared how we embed taxonomy in #iGFBs for energy-efficient, flexible buildings.
๐๏ธKey: SRI, data models, and cross-EU collaboration. #Energy4Europe
โก BRIDGE GA 2025 brought EU smart grid leaders together to push the energy transition.
#WeForming shared insights on iGFBs with ED, R&D Nester, Builtrix & HSE.
Key themes: data interoperability, consumer focus & cross-project synergies.

Enabling buildings to sell demand response and energy flexibility services back to the grid, iGFBs create new value streams, supporting a more resilient energy system while benefiting financially.

๐ How can buildings be energy-smart and user-friendly?
New study by our partners from FER show how appliance schedules can be optimized using past data without asking users to change habits๐ง
Flexibility starts with comfort, not compromise๐ก๐ https://t.co/GQaD9l6osD
Today, our partner David Pera from the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) orchestrated a masterclass to WeForming partners on the Smart Readiness Indicator (#SRI)
๐ช๐บ The SRI is an EU initiative under the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive
๐ก Smarter buildings start with smarter conversations!
At #WeForming, users help shape the energy systems of tomorrow through co-creation and real-world testing โ making iGFBs more human, usable, and sustainable๐ฌ
Because energy transition works best when people lead the way๐
๐ฅ Did you know? Buildings use 40% of Europeโs energy and emit 36% of its COโ.
At #WeForming, we empower users to save energy, cut costs, and support the grid โ all without losing comfort๐กโก
Because a smarter, more sustainable future starts at home๐ก๐ฑ
