Smart Charging ALignment for Europe

SCALE will enable and facilitate the mass deployment of electric vehicles and the accompanying smart charging infrastructure. SCALE will systematically assess customer expectations, identifying EV-users’ preferences, existing obstacles and potential incentives to charge smartly. By this, SCALE ensures co-creation and optimisation, preparing for an open smart charging & V2X eco-system that equally benefits users, cities & regions, businesses and the society.

Transport emissions are uniquely complex to reduce, prompting PATH2ZERO to provide stakeholders with tools for data-driven, cross-sectoral, and globally collaborative net-zero pathways. The project’s initial methodology includes harmonizing data and mapping EU policy elements as model inputs. A forecasting framework then projects transport activity and emissions to 2050, assessing GHG reduction impacts, fairness and economic considerations. Benchmarking identifies gaps, enhances alignment, and compares scenarios. Finally, PATH2ZERO refines national and cross-national policies, guiding EU strategies through stakeholder co-creation for impactful, diverse and feasible pathways.

As part of the NHSOS project, pilot actions are being implemented in Chalki, Antikythera, and Kastellorizo, aiming to transform Greek islands into “green” islands through renewable energy sources (RES), energy autonomy and zero carbon emissions. For Chalki, the goal is to evolve from a green energy model to a model of holistic sustainable development, with projects focusing on circular economy, sustainability, and studies on wave energy and waste management. Meanwhile, in Antikythera, the observatory achieves energy autonomy through photovoltaic systems, promoting green energy for small islands. The Green Smart Visitor Card and the Green Park under development will contribute to sustainable tourism development and highlight the project’s green initiatives.

modUlaR and flexible solutions for urBAN-sIzed Zero-Emissions last-mile Delivery and services vehicles

URBANIZED develops and demonstrates the next generation of modular vehicle architectures for urban-sized commercial e-vehicles, satisfying design principles of optimized size vehicles, delivering 3 outputs: 1) high-performance e-powertrain components and control architectures, through the use of advanced co-design approaches; 2) interchangeable, plug & play cargo modules for different urban freight transport scenarios and 3) integrated energy and fleet management strategies using data, connectivity and learning algorithms.

The main objective of the ELEKTRON project is the establishment of a Lab of Excellence, which, with the use of the tools to be developed, will be able to implement smart solutions to alleviate the environmental impact, mainly from transport, on island regions. It also studies, elaborates, develops and proposes smart solutions for energy savings both through the application of modern technologies in transport and through the production of renewable energy, with a focus on solar energy.

NEMO “New and Flexible Forms of Electromobility in the South Aegean”

NEMO Project introduces and promotes the electric ecofriendly e-scooters as a new , flexible , safe, and affordable means of micro-mobility. It also combines innovative technologies and practices in order to offer a unique experience to the users. The awareness raising and offering training for users in order to promote the right, lawful and safe use of e-scooters is one of the targets as well. Last but not least, the development of new business models and new mobility services for enhancing tourism experience is one of the main goals.
