In recent years, the European Commission and EU countries have set up numerous large-scale pilot projects to contribute to the digitisation of the energy industry across Europe and beyond. The most important goals of this endeavour are reaching a common energy data space to facilitate infrastructure planning and monitoring, empowering citizens by providing them with tools for participation in energy markets, supporting research and development of digital solutions, improving cybersecurity of the energy sector, and supporting the adoption of climate-neutral solutions for the ICT sector. In this panel key projects and services will be presented that move towards a sustainable and digital energy world by exploiting data sharing. The renowned experts and market drivers will show up their approaches and innovative solutions by presenting: Insights to a R&D project about secure smart grids in Germany that is focusing on FIWARE based smart energy solutions while facing Redispatch 2.0 and business modelling challenges. References on how a local utility works together with research institutes and energy ICT companies to realise a building block called “Energiewende” - the transformation of the energy systems towards renewables. The efficient use of data in building energy systems to achieve scalable solutions. Main highlights and strategies of European projects: French Data N​etwork and Enershare. Showcases on how FIWARE building blocks enable the data sharing of energy communities: first insight to the background of energy communities and a proof-of-concept for using the FIWARE context broker as the coordinator of an energy community.

The challenge: Digitalization of energy sector
The digitalization of the energy sector demands higher level of operational excellence with
the adoption of disruptive technologies to foster cross-domain data sharing and data driven
innovation.
Following key elements in data management in support of a data economy need to be
fulfilled:
▪ Data models / Semantics: Defining an appropriate data model beyond a single sector is a key ingredient
for interoperability.
▪ Context Information: Defining the context is a key ingredient for bringing the gap between different
verticals
▪ Data Sovereignty : The ability of a data owner to define what a third party is allowed to do with her/his
data.
▪ Open API: Closed solutions will not create a real open and competitive market. Open APIs offer the perfect
bridge between private infrastructure spaces.

The challenge: Digitalization of energy sector
Under the Technological perspective, some lacks are affecting:
▪ Wireless broadband coverage in rural areas
▪ Standards regarding
• IoT protocols
• interoperability
• easy integration
▪ Debate on data ownership and data security
▪ Limited usability of end applications
▪ Cost-effective solutions

Enershare – the Vision
https://enershare.eu/
• To enable the European Common Energy
DataSpace which will deploy an ‘intra-energy’ and
‘cross-sector’ interoperable and trusted Energy
Data Ecosystem where…
• …private consumers, business (energy and non-
energy) stakeholders and regulated operators will
be able to access, share and reuse, based upon
voluntary agreements (or legal obligations where
such obligations are in force):
• Large sources of currently fragmented and dispersed
data;
• Data-driven cross-value chain (energy and non-
energy) services and Digital Twins for various
purposes.

Enershare – the Architecture
The ENERSHARE architecture spans over three
layers:
• Energy Data Ecosystem
• Data Value Layer
• Interoperability & Trust Layer

The starting point: ENG TRUE Connector
TRUE connector is a connector for the IDS (International Data Space) ecosystem
▪ It enables the trusted data exchange in order to be active part of an IDS Ecosystem, a virtual data
space leveraging existing standards and technologies, as well as governance models well-accepted
in the data economy, to facilitate secure and standardized data exchange and data linkage in a
trusted business ecosystem.
▪ The connector is compliant with the latest IDS specifications and can be easily customized to fit a
wide spread of scenarios thanks to the internal separation of Execution Core Container and Data App.
▪ It is integrable with a lot of existing IDS services and totally configurable in terms of internal/external
data format (multipart/mixed, multipart/form, http-header) and protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, Web Socket
over HTTPS, IDSCPv2).
