At the reported period, WP2 had already been finished and shaped the development of hardware and software solutions across various WPs, ultimately preparing them for market readiness. Regarding WP3, the integration of external data sources is now operational, with final testing and configuration. The integration of devices from different pilots is completed. Deployment connectivity tests have been successfully conducted, ensuring the operational status of installed devices. IoT gateways have been enhanced, and full integration of legacy equipment has been achieved. SRI calculations have been conducted by all pilot partners both before and after interventions, culminating in the final round of calculations executed after the services were deployed. WP4 of the PHOENIX project has been instrumental in promoting interoperability through semantic data models, efficient data management, and the development of forecasting algorithms. The project has deployed a robust triple store connected to context broker, facilitating data storage and retrieval for various services. PHOENIX's commitment to interoperability extends to the reuse of established data models and the creation of specialized models (SRI), ensuring compatibility with external solutions. Moreover, the development of distributed security components and their incorporation into the Security&Privacy framework underscores the project's dedication to data security. The Knowledge Graph solution within PHOENIX’s solution enhances data modelling and management. The ongoing integration of forecasting algorithms into user and grid services further strengthens the project's capabilities. In WP5, the project has made significant strides in offering user-friendly building services. The dashboard implementation is complete, with a focus on improving the user interface. Extensive testing has been conducted to ensure comfort and convenience in building environments, and data analysis from pilot sites has been integrated. Alert recommendations have been successfully integrated into the dashboard, and engines for Automatic SRI calculation and EPC Evaluation have been developed. In WP6, significant progress has been made in achieving synergic grid interaction and automatic energy savings. It was used USEF interpreter for communication and data model configuration efficiency. Integration of energy markets enables demand flexibility based on prices and dynamic pricing with renewable generation. Smart tariffs mechanisms have been developed. Extensive testing for demand response events has been conducted, gathering valuable user feedback. Services related to blackout, EV charging, self-consumption optimization, and flexibility tests with batteries and solar domestic hot water systems have been completed, finalising WP6 developments. WP7 has included selecting innovations for trials, specifying test scenarios, and creating an evaluation framework. Deployment and integration of components in each pilot were carried out, with ongoing communication with service developers. Experiments adhering to the validation framework were executed, and results were documented. Continuous communication with developers ensured services met pilot needs and project goals. Findings were reported in deliverable 7.4 offering valuable insights into project strengths and lesson learned. During WP8, there were three more editions of newsletters, the poster and roller banner were updated to show latest information of demo sites. Website and social media were continuously updated. New creation of project’s training and awareness materials available on the website. The consortium achieved 14 scientific publications, participated in 20 events and collaborated with projects addressing similar topics. Efforts were toward standardization and active participation. Exploitation strategy updates for project KERs were completed, including their Technology Readiness Level. Finally, in the demonstration and validation activities through SMEs winners of the three requests for proposals (RfPs). This process culminated with the third RfP aimed to the validation of the PHOENIX solution through a small-scale external pilot.
