We have developed a practical design and operation solution, consisting of a smart energy management system to maximize the profit and the utilization of renewable energy with guaranteed stability, a standardized hardware module structure for scalability, and a digital twin system for monitoring and maintenance.

The solution can be directly deployed in buildings and energy communities in urban areas, as well as remote and islanded regions, for sustainable, economic, efficient and stable energy supply. Our solution is the winner of Nordic Energy Challenge, 2022.

IVA’s 100 List 2023 - Technology in the service of humanity

IVA’s 100 List 2023 highlights a diverse range of research projects from Swedish universities, under the theme Technology in the Service of Humanity within in climate change, energy supply, welfare technology, cybersecurity and crisis preparedness. The projects have been selected based on their great potential to create value through commercialization, business and method development, or societal impact. All participating researchers are interested in increased contacts with the business sector for the application and further development of their projects.

Named contact persons for each research project on the 100 List are responsible for the accuracy of the information presented.
