The SmartGasNet project partners met at the premises of the National Metrology Institute of the Netherlands (VSL) in Delft (Netherlands) to hold their Kick-Off Meeting. On October 14 and 15, representatives from the consortium’s partner organisations presented the various tasks that will be carried out over the three-year duration of the project. The meeting also served to share the first steps and actions of SmartGasNet.

SmartGasNet is a project that aims to advance the processes for data collection, modelling, processing and prediction to foster the safe, efficient and economic operation of gas grids, thereby supporting the introduction of low-carbon and renewable energy gases. The consortium is made up of 10 entities from 8 countries: VSL (leader of the project), the Czech Metrology Institute, the German National Metrological Institute, the Lithuanian Energy Institute, the Technical University of Denmark, the European Research Institute for Gas and Energy Innovation, the European Gas Research Group, the Norwegian Research Centre, the Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research, and the University of Ljubljana.
