FLEXINet Essentials - Workshop 1

FLEXINet and FLEXGRID are two programs are about intelligent, integrated energy systems and flexible storage. On May 16, they organised the first FLEXINet Essentials workshop at The Green Village, TU Delft Campus.
 
It started with an intro by Pavol Bauer on the FLEXINet project. In this project we work on an integrated system for the intelligent and integrated control and implementation of hybrid energy storage technologies in the built environment. The FLEXINet system will be validated in two living labs: the Green Village and HET cooperatie, Hilversum. Then, Wiljan Vermeer from FLEXGRID took the floor to present a smart charging solution to prevent congestion on the grid and maximize renewable power consumption, while being financially attractive.
 
After these interesting talks, we discussed in small groups how we could make an impact through our learning community. As there is a crisis in the labour market, aim of the learning community is to train and (re-)school professionals and our students with learnings of both projects.
