MARKETBC
Prototype of a blockchain-based Marketplace platform for accounting and executing energy transactions in an energy community.
Description
MARKETBC aims to develop a functional prototype of a digital marketplace-type platform, based on blockchain technology, aimed at the automated management of energy transactions within an energy community. The platform will enable the decentralized traceability, recording, and validation of energy exchanges between different actors (producers, consumers, retailers, and electric vehicle charging stations) through smart contracts. The system will be integrated with energy monitoring and forecasting tools and will be validated in a real-world pilot environment.
Objectives
- Design and implement a decentralized platform for energy trading.
- Validate the system in a real-world pilot environment with local generation and consumption.
- Develop smart contracts to automate energy transactions.
- Integrate demand and generation forecasting using ML techniques.
- Ensure the traceability and transparency of transactions through blockchain.
Actions
- Analysis and definition of system and pilot requirements.
- Development of energy monitoring and prediction subsystems.
- Design and deployment of the blockchain network and smart contracts.
- Systems integration and functional validation of the prototype.
- Technical coordination, monitoring, and transfer of results.
Expected Results
- Technical specification of the system and solution architecture.
- Functional energy prediction subsystem.
- Operational blockchain platform with distributed nodes.
- System validation in a pilot environment with real-world data.
- Complete technical documentation of the prototype and its functionalities.
R&D Line
- Development of Smart Contracts for peer-to-peer energy transactions using Blockchain technology.

Networking
Energy Efficiency Projects:
LEONARDO
LEONARDO promotes the aggregation of various energy management systems to optimize collaborative demand flexibility in nearby industries.
DIGIFAB
DIGIFAB aims to digitize manufacturing and refurbishment processes in advanced industrial sectors through a flexible platform based on digital twins, artificial intelligence, and interoperable technologies.
ENERGYGUARD
The EnergyGuard project will create an innovative test platform for artificial intelligence (AI) in the energy sector, integrating five European test centres with a green HPC infrastructure.
SIRCULAR
SIRCULAR seeks to transform the construction sector into a sustainable, low-carbon industry through decarbonisation strategies. Its main objective is to reduce carbon emissions by minimising reliance on virgin materials and exploring low-carbon alternatives, such as recycled materials.
SMARTeeSTORY
SMARTeeSTORY will create an integrated intelligent building automation and control system to monitor and optimise the energy performance of historic non-residential buildings, according to an innovative multi-domain approach (integrating the 9 domains proposed by the ISR methodology).
FoSSIS3
FoSSIS3 objective is to develop an operational Platform based on artificial intelligence to support decision-making in the energy planning process, through the characterization and estimation of the solar resources, and the development of analytics that support the strategy to improve the energy behavior of the building sector.
BuildON
BuildOn pretends to develop a generic solution and highly replicable to offer services on buildings, facilitate the integration of their systems and technologies and with it, help to construct a new generation of smart buildings.
ENFLATE
ENFLATE applies technologies on data-driven energy and non-energy services, which it will replicate in different geographies and climates, considering different consumer needs.
DIGIBUILD
DigiBUILD overview is to provide an open, interoperable, cloud-based toolbox to transform buildings from traditional `silos´ into interoperable, smarter, digital buildings based on consistent and reliable data
DEDALUS
DEDALUS will design, develop and demonstrate micro (home/flat) and macro (building and district) participatory demand response ecosystems in multiple energy vector systems and with a social and human science based approach
MATRYCS
The main objective of MATRYCS is to define and deploy a Reference Architecture for Buildings Data exchange, management and real-time processing, and to translate this reference architecture into an Open, Cloud-based Data Analytics Toolbox. It will enable AI-based cross-sector analytics for smart energy-efficient buildings, based on seamless data-information-knowledge exchange under respective sovereignty and regulatory principles.
PROBONO
PROBONO brings together a European multidisciplinary consortium of 47 partners, to turn the six European districts into Green Building Neighbourhoods, with positive energy balance and zero carbon emissions: two large-scale demonstrators and four living labs representing business/owner promoters of the green buildings and neighbourhoods transition.
BD4NRG
