The ALPGRIDS project, supported by Interreg Alpine Space programme, is developing microgrids, which enable villages in the Alpine region to produce energy locally.
This allows Alpine areas in five Member States to be better protected from possible blackouts and also reduces volatility in the energy bills for citizens. Have a look at how this European project is ensuring energy supply at a farm in the isolated Alpine area in France, in the latest episode of Smart regions by Euronews in cooperation with DG REGIO.
