Spotlight on EU funded project: Innovative energy (efficiency) service models for sector integration via blockchain (InEExS)

The core concept of the EU-funded LIFE project InEExS is the deployment of integrated energy services across sectors and carriers, and the tokenisation of energy saving data in a public blockchain to facilitate cooperation among market segments and actors.

The InEExS project recently released five innovative business models aimed at deploying integrated energy services across various sectors.

The business cases deployed in Germany, Greece, Spain and Sweden build upon existing models and offer practical insights and real-world applicability by demonstrating further sector integration. The fifth model is conceptual, devised to outline potential strategies for broader implementation. The models aim to support the integration of smart energy services and promote the deployment of sustainable technologies. The use of a common blockchain platform and a focus on optimizing smart energy services connect all the business models.

Business Model 1: Recommendations for Innovative Energy Contracts with Pay for Performance Guarantee

Business Model 2:Improved Self-Consumption of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) in Energy Cooperatives

Business Model 3: Energy efficiency and flexibility services for legacy natural gas boilers

Business Model 4: Smart energy management for EV chargers and electricity- based HVAC appliances

Business Model 5: DEEPP-Decentralized Energy Efficiency Power Plant

The insights gained from these models can help implement similar services in other EU countries, supporting the transition to a more sustainable energy future.
