Data Week 2023 Join | Learn | Share, 13 – 15 June, 2023, Luleå, Sweden

BD4NRG project successfully participated at the Data Week 2023, which took place in Luleå, Sweden between 13 – 15 June 2023 with the central theme “Data Meets Infrastructure at the Edge" and more than 200 people attended the event.

Data Week 2023 is the spring gathering of the European Big Data and Data Driven AI research and innovation communities. In Data Week, the participants share knowledge and results, discuss topics of common interest, find synergies, build new collaborations and identify new challenges and recommendations. Data Week also links the communities and their results to the European policies and market needs and brings European initiatives and activities closer to local communities.

The BD4NRG project was represented by Vagelis Karakolis from NTUA at the Data Week online session entitled “Exploiting the opportunities of energy data platforms” which was held on June 14, 2023.

The session aimed at providing insights into the opportunities opened up from Energy Data Platforms from a technical and a business perspective. With the design and implementation of Common Data Spaces for any sector (including Energy) being on the rise, the session focused on:

• Identifying the experiences and challenges on energy data platforms with regard to technology development and large-scale demonstrations across Europe.
• Elaborating on the data-driven business models for the relevant data value chain stakeholders and the business opportunities for energy data initiatives.
• Providing a hands-on experience on the platforms, tools and components that have been already developed in the context of different, related projects.
• Discussing the lessons learnt and recommendations provided to the data spaces, especially in the energy sector
