Design and Operation of Digitalized Sector-coupled Energy Systems

Aim:

The aim of the workshop is to bring together experts from Europe to exchange insights and to create a roadmap on possible trends and research directions for operation, control and digitalization in sector-coupled energy systems or sector integration.

The event took place as a physical meeting with online broadcast of expert talks for public in zoom.
