The EU Energy Projects Podcast
In this episode of the EU Projects Zone Podcast, Areti Ntaradimou talks to Igor Steiner about the ways in which project GIFT helps European islands achieve decarbonization.
Igor is the coordinator of the project, which is developing, among other things, innovative systems to allow islands to integrate vast amount of renewables.
This is the second episode dedicated to this project. Last year together with Igor we demystified the project’s focus and action points. This time, we are focusing mostly on outcomes so far and lessons learnt, as well as next steps.
And as far as outcomes are concerned, according to Igor, those would be "the system integration of various solution providers and their technologies into one comprehensive solution".
Listen to the first episode about Gift
That, because "it's not so easy to integrate so many very advanced solutions from consortium partners in one integrated solution to operate consistently."
GIFT is in its final stages of development and according to Igor, the next steps would be "collecting and analyze all appropriate data from deployment".
Listen to the whole discussion and find out also what Igor hope to have accomplished once the project's work is concluded, as well as the lessons so far learnt.
