REMOTE has the objective to demonstrate the technical and economic feasibility of two fuel cells-based H2 energy storage solutions (one integrated P2P system, one nonintegrated P2G+G2P system). 3 DEMOs supplied by renewable electricity will installed in either isolated micro-grids or off-grid remote areas.

DEMO GREECE – Agkistro – (Greece): isolated micro-grid application; RES based on hydro generators; industrial (SME) loads available on-site; complete substitution of fossil fuels; avoided costs for new transmission line. End-user: Horizon SA (HOR), owner of hydro plant.

DEMO NORWAY– Froan Island – (Norway): isolated micro-grid application; RES based on hybrid system with PV+Wind generators; residential loads + fish industry available on-site; avoided costs for new sub-marine power line; almost complete substitution of fossil fuels (RES > 95%). End-user: Trønder Energi (TE), utility.

DEMO SPAIN – Canary Island Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain), Isolated micro-grid application; Integration of RES with BESS/H2. 24/7; Industrial loads for milking and
cooling facilities in a farm with P2P system integration. Partners: Inycom and ITC; End-user: Grupo Capisa
