The European Project BestRES
Implementing best practices and innovative business models for renewable energy aggregators
![](/media/3115/conversions/redactor.jpg)
The European BestRES project (Horizon 2020) aims to develop innovative business models for the integration of renewable energy sources by aggregating distributed generation such as wind, PV, biogas, biomass, hydro, Combined Heat and Power (CHP), and combining this with demand-side management and energy storage. These business models will be tested in the various partner countries.
The project brings together 11 partners from nine different EU countries. Flux50 member 3E is one of the Belgian partners in the project.
On 11 February 2019, the project partners organized a European Policy Workshop, “RES Aggregators as Enablers of Prosumers and Active Market Participation”, in Brussels. Interested in the findings? Check here to find out more.
