Register for the ETIP SNET & BRIDGE Key results and steps forward networking event!

On 20th June 2023, the ETIP SNET and BRIDGE will host its “Key results and steps forward” networking event in Brussels at the Royal Library of Belgium (KBR) from 18:00 onwards. A networking walking dinner will follow a one-hour panel session.

Do not miss the opportunity to meet with numerous relevant stakeholders in the energy field and learn about the key results achieved over the past three years and the upcoming steps forward of the two European Commission’s (EC) initiatives.

The Event will be exclusively in person. Registration is required to participate.

The “ETIP SNET and BRIDGE - Key Results and steps forward” will take place on the evening of the first day of the European Sustainable Energy Week (EUSEW). Participants will be welcomed with an aperitif at 18.00, and by 18:30, a panel session will begin, followed by a networking walking dinner.

In the panel, speakers will present and discuss the main achievements of the two EC initiatives and their contribution to guiding Research, Development & Innovation (RD&I) to support Europe’s energy transition. Moreover, you will have the unique opportunity to meet the BRIDGE projects responsible in the “EU BRIDGE Projects Corner” to exchange ideas, discover projects’ results and establish new synergies.

The panel session will be followed by a networking walking dinner across the restaurant of KBR and its beautiful terrace overlooking parts of Brussels city centre. One day away from the longest day of the year, this will be the perfect occasion to network and liaise with the vast community of energy experts part of the ETIP SNET and BRIDGE.

The ETIP SNET and BRIDGE will take part to the EM-Power Europe Conference, the International Exhibition for energy management and integrated energy solutions in Frankfurt from 13 to 16 June 2023.

The two EC initiatives will give a panel session and have a dedicated space where they will be joined by the ten BRIDGE projects below:

Below is the description of the session, also available on the EM-Power Europe website.

The world is facing unprecedented challenges in the form of climate change and the urgent need to transition to a sustainable energy future. In order to tackle these challenges, we must harness the power of research and innovation to drive forward the development of new technologies, processes, and solutions.

This session, organised by the ETIP Smart Networks for Energy Transition (SNET) and BRIDGE - two European Commission’s initiatives - will bring on the stage ten H2020 and Horizon Europe projects. The panel session will be divided into two separate breakdown sessions along the topics of:

  1. Flexibility and retail market options for DSO - Replicable solutions for a cross sector compliant energy ecosystem
  2. Consumer engagement and demand response (including interoperable smart homes and grids) and Decarbonising systems in energy and geographical Islands.

The panellists will present the key figures, activities and results of their projects and will be part of a panel discussion followed by a Q&A session where questions from the audience will be collected.

Join us to enhance more your understanding of the current state of energy-related areas and to identify where the gaps and needs for future research and innovation priorities lie!
