Pilots
The applications developed will be deployed for four distinct use cases, each with its unique set of requirements and challenges. To ensure the success of the project, a representative business model will be selected for each use case, tailored to the specific needs and goals of the intended users. By carefully selecting the appropriate business model for each use case, the project team will be able to maximize the value and impact of the applications developed. The selected business models will also take into account factors such as the target market, revenue streams, and scalability, among others.

Use Case 3:
MONTSERRAT
What: TCM H&C + low T H&C PCM+ smart platform
Use case: heterogeneous complex with high RES share
Building services: heating and cooling
Grid services: peak load shifting, frequency and voltage regulation
Replication scope: overall complex (10 buildings) and mid-scale DHC (2.5 MWth)
Use Case 3:
DUBLIN
What: TCM H&C + smart platform
Use case: heterogeneous complex (university campus) with high RES share
Building services: heating
Grid services: higher RES usage, peak shaving, balance management
Replication scope: overall campus (30,000 people) and other Northern countries multi-functional buildings
Additionally, the selection of representative business models for each use case will enable the project team to gather valuable insights and feedback from users, which can then be used to further improve and refine the applications over time. Ultimately, this approach will help ensure that the project delivers tangible benefits and outcomes for all stakeholders involved, from the developers to the end-users.
