ECLIPSE PROJECT (Sep/2024 - Aug/2026)

Implementation and demonstration of the Common European Reference Framework (CERF) for energy consumers applications across the EU.


Digital technologies solutions for energy monitoring have enormous potential for increasing energy efficiency and load shifting, avoiding grid unbalances and consecutives selective power cuts. Nowadays, there are several end-user applications and platforms that provide more control of the energy usage, providing information to final consumers about the necessary changes in their habits and strategies on a voluntary basis, to reduce their energy consumption and increase grid flexibility and stability.


The objective of ECLIPSE project is the implementation and demonstration of the Common European Reference Framework (CERF) for energy consumers applications across the EU, enabling voluntary energy consumption reductions and load shifting, based on recommendations, strategies, and incentives, promoting sustainable energy consumption behaviour and empowerment of final consumers.

ECLIPSE project will define a set of rules and conditions for the development of new energy consumers applications and to improve of existing ones. These applications will provide to the final consumers with simple, useful and user-friendly information on energy savings, and broader benefits (such as a reduction in CO2 and other financial and social incentives) and at the same time reinforcing the stability and resilience of electricity grids, by means of consumer flexibility (e.g., through smart EV-charging, shifting heating loads, self-consumption, etc.).


The project solutions will be deployed and demonstrated in 16 EU countries, being potentially replicated across the whole European Union, ensuring interoperability with third-party systems, while respecting the current regulatory framework and any existing competitive application offerings.
