The IIT as lead of the ISGAN Academy of the International Smart Grids Action Network would like to invite you to participate in the upcoming webminar «Cybersecurity for Smart Grids: Technical Approaches to Provide Cybersecurity», which will take place on September 11th, 2017.
To find out more about the webminar and to register please here.
Tomás Gómez and Pablo Frías invite you next Sept 19th to the webinar «Policy recommendations for the Clean Energy package based on IndustRE project findings». This webinar provides a number of policy recommendations based on the various barriers found across the six countries analysed by the IndustRE project. Such recommendations should be useful in the framework of the ongoing discussions on market design at European level. You can register here.
Pedro Linares was chosen by the government from among the 14 experts who will compose the commission responsible for producing a report on the different scenarios of energy transition and the alternatives of combining different energy sources. More information here.
Tomás Gómez presented last 13 of July the study «The new electric utitlity» (MIT-Comillas) in the summer course «Els Juliols:the energy transition and electric markets» Programme here.
IIT participate actively on «IndustRE» proyect. The flexibility of the industrial electricity demand has been identified as a potential that through innovative business models can facilitate further growth of variable renewable energy, while reducing the industrial electricity costs and contributing to the European energy policy goals. In this project the large industry is working with the renewable energy community to identify and implement business models for supplying variable renewable electricity to industrial users with flexibility in their demand, creating win-win situations. Several variations of the business models will be described covering different options like on and off-site renewable energy production. The business models will be adapted to 5 industrial sectors (chemicals, non-ferrous metals, cold storage, steel, and water treatment) and 6 target countries (Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and UK).

This initiative, led by Sara Lumbreras Sancho of the IIT and promoted by the Celera Association by Francisco Martínez, has been supported by Rafael del Pino Foundation, Pontificial Comillas University and Pons Foundation, has provided a total of 5 projects.
Iberdrola and MIT Energy Initiative announce $10.3 million collaboration. This expanded collaboration follows Iberdrola’s multi-year sponsorship of MITEI’s Utility of the Future study and the corresponding report released in December 2016. The study — which MITEI conducted with Spain’s Institute for Research in Technology at Comillas Pontifical University (IIT-Comillas) — highlighted emerging trends in the electric power sector, where decarbonization, digitization, renewable energies and energy storage will continue to define the industry and determine a more flexible and efficient consumption of energy. More information here and here.
Tomás Gómez participated last 21 and 22 of June in «EUSEW 2017», the most important European conference dedicated to sustainable energy policy issues. Programme here.
