Digicities is a project coordinated by ERA-Net that aims to overcome barriers to accessibility and data exchange at the level of energy utilities and municipalities.
A data architecture will be developed based on structured and interconnected digital layers that will be used for the projection of energy demand. A framework for processing, storing and using data will be demonstrated within the Lugano Living Lab.

The data structure for energy system planning and its operational management will be implemented through a 'Digital Twin'.
The project consortium is composed of subjects involved in every phase of the value chain. This approach considers the impact of technical advances and regulatory changes to develop a solution that accelerates the energy transition to a zero-impact energy system.

This project was funded under the joint programming initiative “ERA-Net Smart Energy Systems”, Digital Transformation for the Energy Transition, with the support of the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.
It is partially funded by the Federal Office of Energy (UFE), the Austrian Agency for Research Promotion (FFG) and partners.
