| STORE4HUC | https://programme2014-20.interreg-central.eu/Content.Node/Store4HUC.html | INTERREG Central Europe 2014-2020 | 2019-2022 | The STORE4HUC project aimed to improve territorial low-carbon energy planning strategies. It enriched policies that support climate mitigation in historic urban centers by developing policy recommendations for implementation and sharing lessons learned in our four pilot sites. There, we realized storage solutions in historic urban areas and experienced and overcame difficulties firsthand. We also developed energy management tools for various stakeholders to help them make decisions about investing in an energy storage solution. | low-carbon, energy planning, urban planning, strategy, policy, historic, energy storage | Development Agency Sinergija Slovenia | sinergija@ra-sinergija.si |
| HyEfRe | Hydrogen integration for efficient renewable energy systems https://www.interreg-central.eu/projects/hyefre/ | INTERREG Central Europe 2021-2027 | 2024-2026 | HyEfRe will counteract challenges related to low integration and balancing of fluctuating renewable energy sources (wind and photovoltaic), suboptimal energy efficiency and lack of carbon-neutrality in CE energy systems, resulting in high energy prices and climate change. The project will lead to the establishment of hydrogen ecosystems in the participating regions, supporting uptake of solutions and strategies, considering all stakeholders. Our consortium consists of research institutes, energy/regional development agencies and SMEs experienced in renewable energy and hydrogen integration, modelling, optimization & IT, legal/economic assessment and stakeholder engagement. HyEfRe will advance the timely energy transition towards carbon-neutrality and result in decentralized new jobs, increasing prosperity and ensuring Europe's leading role in the renewable energy sector. | hydrogen, renewable energy, energy storage, strategy, energy transition | Landshut University of Applied Sciences Germany | Sebastian Arjona sebastian.arjona-bocaz@haw-landshut.de |
| CSSC LAB | City Storage and Sector Coupling Lab https://dtp.interreg-danube.eu/approved-projects/cssc-lab | INTERREG Danube Transnational Programme 2014-2020 | 2020-2022 | Based on a recent study published by EUSDR PA2 renewables will provide 50% of SEE power demand in 2030. With higher levels of utilization of RES energy storage is becoming the key in the next phase of the energy transition in all Danube countries. Even in the most advanced regions the introduction of innovative energy storage and sector coupling applications has just started to gain momentum. As these challenges particularly hit medium-sized and smaller cities, adequate City Storage and Sector Coupling (CSSC) solutions are needed to ensure efficient energy use and increased energy security. CSSC Lab will prepare the ground for accelerating the up-take of CSSC solutions by Danube region cities which is at very low level because of public authorities possess little knowledge and shy the risks of investment. To overcome this barrier, the CSSC Lab project will implement a capacity building programme for municipalities and demonstrate the viability of CSSC solutions for medium-sized and smaller cities in the Danube region. | energy storage, renewable energy, municipality, training | North-West Croatia Regional Energy Agenca Croatia | hmaras@regea.org |

DanuP-2-Gas will bring together energy agencies, business actors, public authorities and research institutions via the Danube Energy Platform. | renewable energy, energy storage, strategy, web platform | Technology Centre Energy - University of Applied Sciences Landshut Germany | Tim Bieringer Tim.bieringer@haw-landshut.de |
| Danube Indeet | Integrated and decentralised concept rethinking energy and transport systems based on renewable energy in the Danube region https://interreg-danube.eu/projects/danube-indeet | Interreg Danube Region Programme 2021-2027 | 2024-2026 | Danube Indeet will facilitate the expansion and implementation of renewable energy in the Danube region. Renewable energy expansion requires extension of the electricity grid, which often cannot be carried out at the same pace. Thus, the fluctuating electricity needs to be stored and utilised outside the electric grid to a certain extent. Danube Indeet tackles these issues by providing an integrated concept considering both the energy and transport systems in the Danube region. A viable way is the intelligent integration of electric vehicles as mobile storage solutions, commonly refered to as "vehicle-to-grid", and electrolysis for green hydrogen production.The integration of both concepts can support the expansion of renewable energy application, produced and consumed locally, which supports energy security and independence, while also reducing GHG emissions in the energy sector. However, the implementation requires extensive analyses and modelling to ensure that the concept is economically viable, legally secure, efficient and sustainable in the long run. | renewable energy, energy storage, hydrogen, transport | Landshut University of Applied Science Germany | Astrid Heindel Astrid.Heindel@haw-landshut.de |
| ESINERGY | Empowerment of the stakeholders in the implementation of the Directive on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources in term of energy storages and energy networks stability https://interreg-danube.eu/projects/esinergy | Interreg Danube Region Programme 2021-2027 | 2024-2026 | ESINERGY helps to solve one of the key issues in modern energy technology, this is to manage the imbalance between the generated power and the load into the electrical network, which is not adequate for the forthcoming needs such as rising consumption, energy demand etc. This challenge affects in particular energy providers, grid operators, all energy prosumers e.g. municipalities, companies, farms, households and indirectly regional and national public authorities that should deal with it on the structural and systematic way within the planning potentials. In fact, they are affected to such an extent that the connection of further (larger) PV-systems (energy production systems) is not possible in some areas because the grid already operates at its limit. | energy planning, grid, energy storage, solar energy | Development Agency Sinergija and Local Energy Agency Pomurje Slovenia | Katja Karba katja@lea-pomurje.si |
