TIPS4PED

TIPS4PED will design, develop, and test in a relevant environment the effectiveness and the techno-economic viability of a Digital Twin based Platform, to support municipalities in the implementation of Positive Energy Districts. The TIPS4PED Platform will be able to support municipalities in the decision-making delivering a series of evidence-based results, increasing the environmental sustainability of cities, and reducing operational costs. The project will adopt a people-centric approach, which aims at engage, train and empower citizens and potential stakeholders. TIPS4PED will do this by leveraging on consortium knowledge and prior EU experience and being motivated by the goals set forth by the European Commission. To design and manage the PED effectively and foster its implementation through city planning actions, different modules will be made available on the Integrated Assessment Platform, to support municipalities from the technical perspective, as well as the social, financial, regulatory and administrative ones. The tools will be developed thanks to a end-users co-design approach, capable of providing constant feedback to the software development process. The TIPS4PED solutions will be tested in one LightHouse city (Turin), where the IAP will be connected to a sensoring system for the realtime management of the assets, and replication studies will be conducted in three Follower Cities (Cork, Kozani and Budapest). The testing and replication phase willl result in the creation of 4 cities Digital Twins and decarbonization roadmaps. TIPS4PED seeks to suggest scalable and easily reproducible technologies and digital optimization as a key solution for to achieve 2030 EU goals, while taking into consideration various market circumstances, and environmental, safety, and regulatory aspects.
