Main questions

The core of the SEEV4-City project is making a huge step forward in green city development by a smart combination of electric vehicles, renewable energy sources and ICT solutions.


Main findings

The operational pilots will exhibit the V2G potential at different scales, and aiming for the same three goals:

  • An increase in energy autonomy.
  • An increase of ultra-low emission kilometres.
  • Avoiding extra investments to make existing electrical grids compatible with an increase in electro mobility and local energy production.

Main questions

Across North West Europe, cities are increasingly investing in renewable energy production and charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. However, the control systems for energy generation, energy utilisation, energy storage and electric vehicle charging work are currently separate from each other.


Main findings

In the CME pilots, e-mobility solutions were implemented together with local renewables, storage and an open-source energy management system (the REMove tool) to connect, monitor and optimise the energy flows. By matching local energy needs with local renewables through smart solutions, such a system increases renewable energy's economic value and significantly reduces carbon emissions. This also contributes to increased energy security and independence of European cities and regions, at a time when the cost of energy has been increasing to record levels throughout Europe.
