A report by InEExS includes two roadmaps that outline recommendations for the deployment of smart energy services in Europe to advance the energy transition.
The energy sector is an area where smart services and technologies play an increasingly important role. For a smooth energy transition, it is crucial to investigate the digitalisation of energy services and technologies through the integration of cutting-edge technologies and tools. The introduction of blockchain technology has provided a new set of opportunities in the energy sector.
The InEExS Business and Policy Roadmaps serve as a complementary guide to identifying and addressing barriers for integrating innovative energy efficiency services and technologies across sectors, facilitated by Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT). The aim of this report is twofold: to assess and overcome the regulatory, financial, and market design barriers at the EU and Member State levels that could hinder smart service and technologies implementation, and to identify and prioritise viable smart services and technologies that can connect energy sectors and carriers, promoting greater energy efficiency and flexibility.
