Roundtable set to tackle five major challenges of demand response regulation

27/05/2025 - 27/05/2025 youris.com

European Green Cities, a partner in the DEDALUS project, is hosting a roundtable to explore how regulations can evolve to better support demand response. The discussion will focus on five key challenges currently hindering its development.

European Green Cities, as a partner of the DEDALUS project, is hosting a roundtable to tackle a key question: how should national and EU regulations evolve to truly enable the growth of Demand Response programmes?

With input from industry experts, scientific and technological partners of the project, and institutional representatives, the discussion will focus on five major challenges currently hindering the development of demand response:
  • lack of effective incentives to engage key stakeholders;
  • absence of a clear and consistent regulatory framework;
  • interoperability issues across national infrastructure systems;
  • entry barriers imposed by DSOs and TSOs;
  • complexities in data management and privacy protection.
Confirmed speakers include:
  • Thomas Kawam (Policy Officer – Internal Energy Market at DG ENER, European Commission)
  • Andrei Vladimir Litiu (Executive Director, EPB Center and Next Gen EPC Cluster)
  • Maria Capogreco (Chair of HWG, RHC-ETIP)
  • Saska Petrova (Professor of Human Geography, Departmental Research Director, University of Manchester)
  • Gusts Kossovics (Managing Director, EUBAC)
  • Quentin Donnette (Head of Research and Projects, smartEn – Smart Energy Europe)
  • Panos Skaloumpakas (Pilot site coordinator at the DEDALUS project, based at National Technical University of Athens / NTUA)
  • Athanasios Papakonstantinou (Innovation Coordinator at the DEDALUS project, R&D Project Manager and Energy Management at HERON)
The roundtable will be moderated by Katerina Sianni (DEDALUS project partner; Data Scientist & Data Visualization Senior Expert at the Energy Policy Unit, NTUA).
The event will take place on Tuesday 27 May 2025 from 9.30 AM to 12 PM (all times in CEST), and it is open to the public.

Full agenda and access details are available on the European Green Cities website.

Testimonials

For well over a decade, in my capacity as a researcher, broadcaster, and producer, I have relied heavily on Alphagalileo.
All of my work trips have been planned around stories that I've found on this site.
The under embargo section allows us to plan ahead and the news releases enable us to find key experts.
Going through the tailored daily updates is the best way to start the day. It's such a critical service for me and many of my colleagues.
Koula Bouloukos, Senior manager, Editorial & Production Underknown
We have used AlphaGalileo since its foundation but frankly we need it more than ever now to ensure our research news is heard across Europe, Asia and North America. As one of the UK’s leading research universities we want to continue to work with other outstanding researchers in Europe. AlphaGalileo helps us to continue to bring our research story to them and the rest of the world.
Peter Dunn, Director of Press and Media Relations at the University of Warwick
AlphaGalileo has helped us more than double our reach at SciDev.Net. The service has enabled our journalists around the world to reach the mainstream media with articles about the impact of science on people in low- and middle-income countries, leading to big increases in the number of SciDev.Net articles that have been republished.
