FINESCE was the smart energy use case project of the 2nd phase of Future Internet Public Private Partnership Programme (FI-PPP) funded by the European Union within FP7.
From 2013-2015, FINESCE has contributed to the development of an open IT-infrastructure to be used to develop and offer new app-based solutions in all fields of the Future Internet related to the energy sector. The project has organized and run a series of field trials at trial sites in 7 European countries.
Future Internet Smart Utility Services
FINESCE has built on and extended the results of the FI-PPP FINSENY project to realise sustainable real time smart energy services.
The consortium included leading energy and ICT operators, manufacturers and service providers as well as research organizations and SMEs from all over Europe. Together, they contributed directly to strongly focused trials and business innovation.
The project featured a scale and scope ensuring the FINESCE results and has driven the FI-WARE and Future Internet success and long-term exploitation internationally.
Develco Products provided the research project with a ZigBee interface for inverters and heat pumps and took part in in several development tasks.
