Smart Hybrid Energy Storage And Management (SHESAM)

The main objective is to increase the share of local RES used in the building sector, by integrating energy storage and management systems. The project will demonstrate innovative solutions for local power and heat generation and their
appropriate integration with energy storage in the form of hydrogen (Power to Gas) to enhance renewable energy penetration in the built environment. The addition of Hydrogen Energy Storage Systems (HESS) and Thermal Energy Storage Systems (TESS) increases the system flexibility and efficiency.
Direct outcomes envisaged to be achieved during the project are:

1. substantially increased exploitation of RES in the built environment;
2. provision of a real case methodology for co-operation between hydrogen storage & RES installations;
3. quantifications of the social, economic and environmental benefits of energy storage applications;
4. Increase public acceptance of Smart Hybrid RES-energy storage systems.
