The EU Energy Projects Podcast
In this episode of the EU Projects Zone Podcast, Areti Ntaradimou is joined by Matteo Pozzi to talk about PlaMES and how this project will deliver a more reliable and effective energy system across all sectors.
PlaMES is a Horizon 2020 project that aims to plan the development of integrated energy infrastructure to guarantee a more reliable and effective energy system across all sectors.
"The objective of the project is to design decarbonized scenarios for the future, looking at 2040 and beyond, in a way that the investments can be sustainable," says Matteo.
"The problem", adds Matteo, "is that there is a lack of tools that actually cover the complexity of putting in the same place grid versus supply. Both systems will change quite dramatically in the future but understanding how to invest in the supply structure, is is going to be a big challenge at the EU, but also on a global level".
And the objective that the PlaMES project's team set for themselves was, according to Matteo, "to create something which would manage such problems and data structures with the capability to actually navigate and use the data effectively, which was a second element that was opted".
Listen to this episode of the EU Projects Zone Podcast to hear from Matteo Pozzi about how PlaMES will enable governments, from regional up to EU-level, jointly with Transmission and Distribution System Operators (TSO and DSO) as well as multi-utilities, to better plan the development of integrated energy infrastructures.
