In this episode of the EU Projects Zone Podcast, Areti Ntaradimou is joined by Markus Taumberger to talk about iFLEX, an EU funded project that aims at empowering energy consumers. To achieve that, the project tries to make it as easy as possible for energy consumers to participate in the demand response process. "The iFLEX project is directly addressing the EU policies, namely the 2020-2030 climate and energy framework and the Energy Union" says Markus. Adding, "There's a strong focus on renewables, self consumption, energy market overhaul and consumer empowerment". The project’s ambition is, among other things, to create an intelligent personal assistant for the energy consumer, called the iFLEX Assistant. And while the consumer will still have full control of the flexibility, the operation can be fully automated so that the consumer does not have to do anything on a daily basis. Listen to this episode of the EU Projects Zone Podcast and hear from Markus Taumberger about the concept and objectives of the iFLEX project.
