Digitalising European energy and transport networks through Operational Digital Platforms – EC (CEF)

In light of the unprecedented energy crisis, CEF Digital will contribute to achieving the EU’s environmental, energy and digitalisation targets as well as energy and digital security and sovereignty by enabling a cyber-secure Internet of Energy and an optimised transport system along major European pathways. With a budget of €4 million and complete funding of the activities, this call will set up a Coordination and Support Action (CSA) for ODPs in transport and energy infrastructures across Europe. The CSA is important as it will define the cross-border services and infrastructure that will receive much larger co-funding to be deployed in Europe.n

The ODPs in question will “retro-fit” the existing energy and transport infrastructures with the required cross-border digital infrastructure and will build on and integrate with existing and emerging European data, cloud and edge computing and connectivity infrastructures, in particular those supported in other parts of the CEF Digital, Horizon Europe and DIGITAL programmes. They will comply with the principles of the common European data spaces and could be among the first practical implementations of the said data spaces.
