About this project
<p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">Renel IKE provides solutions for energy and electromechanical projects and services. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif"><span style="color: #000000">Both EU and national guidelines push for the adoption of EVs. For example, according to a recent law, in Greece from 2030 only EVs will be sold in the country. Due to the high adoption of EVs, there will likely be a peak in electricity demand when most EVs are recharging. This, in combination with the increased electricity generation from renewable sources, will lead to the increasing importance of smart energy production, consumption and storage.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">R&D-project “SMART” by Renel IKE comprises of the development of a SMART Solar Charge Station for EV vehicles, with an integrated system to manage real time energy consumption, generation and storage. The product will be based on energy storage systems and stochastic forecasting models. The <span style="color: #000000">SMART Solar Charge Station will support energy producers, energy suppliers, owners of charging stations and EVs through a decision-support system that will decide on the appropriate energy consumption.</span> </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">For the project, Renel IKE has partnered up with two Greek companies. Amongst them, the Greek company G. K. SKYLOGIANNIS & SIA OE. They will assist the development and implementation of the optimization model for real time energy management in the charge station, and the with the implementation of the IoT technologies. Power Public Corporation, their second partner, are the largest energy producer in Greece. They will also be a potential client to later adopt the solution and install the smart EV chargers throughout the country. Their contribution to the project, is to be the pilot user of the EV charger, as of their experience in the energy market. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt"><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif">The project will lead to increased competitiveness of enterprises registered in Greece. Through the project, 2 new jobs will be created. Additionally, the entry of the product will reduce greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption due to better energy management of the electrical vehicles. </span></span></p>
