Description
In Estonia energy costs are increasing sharply in the coming years due to the recent market opening. Therefore energy saving and controlling costs are among highest priorities of the Estonian enterprises. In this context the project idea is to develop a full solution for providing energy management services that would be based on open-source software. Such a system would provide significant opportunities for resource efficiency at a lower cost than systems currently available on the market. This project, supported under the small grant scheme, will aim to further elaborate the project idea with the aim of preparing the project application for the main open call under the GII programme. The project aim is to compile the technical documentation necessary for the development, to carry out business model analysis and development to ensure successful commercialisation of the project outcome and to search for technical partners to be involved in the project.
