Crossover, LF Energy Summit Europe 2026, Berlin
EnerTEF will be represented at LF Energy Summit Europe 2026 in Berlin, where Elissaios Sarmas, Senior Researcher at EPU-NTUA, will participate in the panel session “From Research to Market: The Challenge Ahead for Research and Open Source.”
The session will explore one of the key challenges facing research and innovation projects: how promising technologies can move beyond the research environment and become solutions that are accessible, scalable and sustainable in real-world energy systems.
Elissaios will join Antonello Monti, RWTH Aachen University; José Ricardo Andrade, INESC TEC; Geethu Joseph, CRESYM; and Ferdinando Bosco, Engineering Ingegneria Informatica for a discussion combining short presentations with an expert panel on open-source technologies, exploitation pathways and the transition from research results to market-ready solutions.
As part of the discussion, Elissaios will present the EnerTEF approach to bringing AI-based energy services from development and experimentation towards real-world testing and wider deployment.
A central element of this process is the EnerTEF Portal, which provides a common access point to the services and testing capabilities developed across the EnerTEF ecosystem. Through EnerTEF’s Nodes and Satellites, AI solutions can be tested and validated in representative energy environments before becoming accessible to a broader community of innovators, researchers, SMEs and energy stakeholders.

The presentation will also highlight TwinREV, developed in the context of CRETE VALLEY by NTUA with the support of RWTH Aachen University and INESC TEC.
TwinREV is a digital platform designed to monitor, forecast and optimise local energy flows for Energy Communities by integrating a suite of tools, services and simulation engines. It also provides grid operators with insights and simulations that support better energy decision-making.
Powered by cloud computing, machine learning, real-time power-flow simulations and flexibility indicators, the platform demonstrates how research results can be transformed into practical tools supporting local energy systems and communities.
