After three years of collaboration, experimentation and innovation, the ECOFLEX Project is coming to a close. You are warmly invited to our final event, where we will present key results, lessons learned, and discuss future perspectives for unlocking flexibility at low voltage levels.
After three years of collaboration, experimentation and innovation, the ECOFLEX Project is coming to a close. You are warmly invited to our final event, where we will present key results, lessons learned, and discuss future perspectives for unlocking flexibility at low voltage levels.
Supported by the Belgian FOD Economy, ECOFLEX brought together 8 partners to explore how electric vehicles, energy communities and multi-energy assets can contribute to a more decentralised, smart and sustainable grid. With real-life demonstrators and advanced energy management systems, the project has delivered concrete solutions for unlocking flexibility on the ground.
