DIGITAL-CER project

Capwatt and the Institute of Systems and Computer Engineering, Technology and Science (INESC TEC) are developing the DIGITAL-CER project, a P2020 - R&D Project in Co-promotion, which aims to investigate, develop and demonstrate a innovative digital platform with advanced applications for planning and managing Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) in private or public electricity networks, constituted exclusively by members of the industrial and business sector.

To demonstrate and validate the REC technologies and model, a pilot project will be implemented at Sonae Campus. This project will enhance the exploration of renewable energies for the production of green electricity, enhancing the global commitment to decarbonization and development of a sustainable economy at the local community level, with social, environmental and economic benefits.
