REGIONAL ENERGY
DEMAND ANALYSIS PORTAL
(REDAP)
ENERGY DEMAND. UNDERSTOOD.
The rollout of Smart Energy Systems across the European building and transportation sectors is often delayed by the complexity behind planning and investing in these systems.
Our consortium aims to accelerate the rollout of SES (incl. district heating, building retrofits, and transport electrification infrastructure) by providing actionable insights, clarity, and direction to decision-makers. To do so, the digital reporting and monitoring system will be developed and standardised by multidisciplinary partners in Ireland, Sweden, and Austria. It will combine powerful computing and mapping technology, authoritative data (incl. building energy performance data), and an advanced mobility energy demand analysis methodology.
Over the course of this two-year project, the REDAP consortium aims to inform the planning efforts of 'front-line' energy planning experts ('need-owners'): Codema, Dublin's energy agency (Ireland), the City of Gothenburg Council (Sweden), and Energieagentur der Regionen (Austria).

REDAP is an application to the 2018 ERA-Net SES fund. The fund supports Research, Development & Innovation (RDI) initiatives contributing to:
“Develop Integrated Local and Regional Energy Systems. Such Systems make it possible and host efficiently provide, to utilise high shares of renewables, up to and beyond 100% in the local or regional supply by 2030. They enable regions and local communities to realise their high sustainable energy ambitions. Such systems shall provide tailor-made solutions that meet the local and regional requirements and demand. At the same time, they shall link to a secure and resilient European energy system, enabling the participation in inter-regional exchange of energy as well as in sharing responsibility to maintain the overall system, considering a sustainable use of local and global resources”.
