The purpose of the main project ESC is to develop technology, means and standards for intelligent control of energy consumption, renewable small scale energy production, and energy storages to secure availability of energy for rural communities. In this project the main forms of energy produced are heat and electricity but cooling is covered to a lesser extent. The Energy Sustainable Community is autonomous and self supportive energywise and balances energy production, consumption, and storage within the community households, farms, companies and other members. The intelligence to balance and control can be achieved by connecting the home appliances and other devices to a communication (control) network, controlling the home appliances as well as HVAC and other devices and finally by evaluating the achieved benefits for consumers, energy producers, energy distributors and other stakeholders.
This Pre-ESC preparatory project will assemble the best possible consortium to execute the work and tasks of the main project ESC described above. The work includes project application planning and writing, meetings/workshops with potential partners, the development of the project plan and lobbying the key stakeholders. We want to establish a likeminded partnership with the determination to make the main project a success, and have a wide and lasting influence on the societies living in harsh climate conditions in the rural regions of northern hemisphere.
