Finally, the DST will be used to raise awareness, discuss potential solutions and gain feedback for further development from the National Advisory Teams and a broader set of stakeholders (connected to Task 4.1).

Campus Microgrid Model Prototype

This deliverable details the microgrid optimization model deployed at NTNU Gløshaugen campus that includes: 1) integration of live data sources (meteorological forecasts, calendar data, regional energy market data, building level data); 2) forecasted supply mix in the local bidding area; 3) price forecasts connected to local energy markets (Task 5.9 and 5.10), 4) integration with input to control systems; 5) model set-up for demonstrating PEB technologies concepts in terms of economic, energy and environmental performance; 6) optimization of the operational system; 7) evaluation and optimization of storage solutions, different integration projects, and building refurbishments; and 8) analysis, reporting, and dissemination to the LHCs/FCs. The optimization model will be demonstrated for use in long-term planning and project evaluation (connected to Task 5.7).

+Trondheim DST including training manuals/videos

This demo will supply a software-based Integrated Modelling and Decision Support Tool (DST), developed in WP1, to Trondheim and deliver the Trondheim DST together with the training and user guides. Buildings, energy production and consumption, mobility/transport patterns (including forecasted EV demand), current EV charging stations, current vacancies, current building rates, value of homes, economic activity (number of businesses, employment rate, jobs announcements, etc.) will be forecast to 2050, analysing their impact with respect to the LCCC Bold City Vision and taking future weather scenarios into account. The model will further be leveraged for the monitoring and evaluation of the demonstrations in Trondheim, to compare the results from the demonstrations with the baseline and visualise this on a simple, intuitive dashboard using the KPI framework developed in WP7. Finally, the DST will be used to raise awareness, discuss potential solutions and gain feedback for further development from the National Advisory Teams and a broader set of stakeholders (connected to Task 5.1).

+Trondheim 2050 Bold City Vision and Guidelines

This deliverable demonstrates how to refine and develop the bold city vision into a fully integrated planning process, implementation, and replication. Citizens, community groups, NGOs, local leaders, and industry partners will be involved in the demonstration through the citizen observatories (T5.3) and the Playgrounds (T5.5). Evidence-based data and insights will be used to make informed decisions on urban, technical, financial, and social aspects guided by the Sustainable Development Goals 2030. The report will then demonstrate and document what TK as urban authority needs to do in order to enable the creation of a positive energy city by 2050, and a framework on how TK can develop this capability to last through generations, together with local stakeholders. The report further describes how to create well integrated innovative strategies with realistic implementation roadmaps that support each other, utilise open innovation, avoid duplication of effort and costs, and contributes to increased resource efficiency in the implementation phase. Finally, the report demonstrate how TK together with local stakeholders can co-create resourcing and funding mechanisms for the implementation, replication, and scaling out of solutions to social, economic, physical, and environmental issues. The bold city vision will correspondingly be supported by an adequate investment and resourcing plan (T5.11) (connected to Task 5.2).

+Trondheim eMaaS Demonstration

This deliverable details the implementation of the electro-Mobility-as-a-Service demonstration project in Trondheim including the following elements: 1) two eMaaS hubs at Sluppen (Sluppenveien 17B) and at Brattøra (the basement of Powerhouse) with initially 10 EVs and 10 E-Bikes each; 2) V2B and V2G enabled via installation of Smart Chargers using (Open Charge Point Protocol - OCPP v.2.0 or higher) at Sluppen and integrated with the DEPB and the Energy Trading Platform (T2.2, T2.5) followed by V2B/V2G installation at Brattøra; 3) the Seamless eMobility platform (connected to Task 5.8).

Monitoring and Evaluation Dashboard

The M&E Dashboard is an interactive web-based system employing various methods of modelling, pattern algorithms, and analysis to build intelligence and a representation of events. The data output from the platform will be stored and managed in an M&E repository with spatial capabilities. This database will be arranged in a variety of different spatial formats for interoperability in the design of the database. Core functionality of the Dashboard includes: 1) the ability to publish web-based or mobile reporting with intuitive interactive displays that indicate the state of a performance metric compared with a goal or target value; 2) dissemination of up-to-date data from operational applications, or in conjunction with a complex-event processing engine; 3) provision of an ‘early warning’ scoring system that will assess and measure on-going impact. Finally, the system can operate as a standalone facility or through the ICT ecosystem integrated/overlayed with other interfaces or public screens (connected to Task 7.2).

+Trondheim Citizen Observatory

This deliverable describes the implementation of Citizen Observatories located at and linked to the Distributed Positive Energy Blocks (DPEBs) in four sites in Trondheim: Sluppen, Brattøra, the central square of Trondheim city (Trondheim Torg), and Adressaparken. The Sluppen Observatory interacts with existing Innovation Labs FAKTRY, AI Lab and IoT Protolab. The Brattøra Observatory will use the new square in front of the new Business School and Powerhouse positive energy building while the Trondheim Torg Observatory is located in the physical centre of the city. Finally, the existing Adressaparken Observatory will be further extended to try new digital forms of narrative to support DPEBs in Trondheim. The Citizen Observatory demos include a digital platform (“Playable Trondheim”) for increased citizen understanding, ownership and active participation including interactive mapping that enables a 2-way dialogue regarding the aims, goals, motivations and ambitions of the communities with the urban authorities (connected to Task 5.3).

Data Management Plan (Initial version)

This deliverable describes how data is handled in accordance with FAIR principles. In addition, recruitment and informed consent procedures and templated will be included in the deliverable as per Sec 5.1. In addition, description of the processing of personal data, including Data Protection Officer appointments linked with the DMP, technical and organisational measures and anonymisation techniques to ensure privacy and data protection rights of data subjects, informed consent for data processing, and relevance of data collected (connected to Task 11.6).
