The H2020 project InterConnect launches its first Open Call on Interoperable-by-design Prototypes to support ICT/Energy SMEs and Startups to develop and test novel Interoperable applications or services for smart homes and grids, with a clear societal and economic value.
Interconnect will select up to 14 Bottom-up projects to develop and test novel Interoperable applications or services for smart homes and grids, with a clear societal and economic value, on top of the Interconnect’s Interoperability framework. These highly innovative projects should aim to build a more comfortable and healthier living space at lower costs and enable their active participation in the energy system and market.
The beneficiaries selected will receive financial support, up to 150.000 € per project, and a 7 months support programme to develop the new interoperable by design application, based on the interoperable framework. It will be tested with end-users in the InterConnect Pilots in order to get a final stable version (TRL 7 or 8).
The eligible candidates can submit their applications by filling up an easy online application form by 26/07/2022 (17:00 Brussels Time).
