WHAT IS POTENT-X?

The POTENT-X project (Ports as Energy Transition Hubs) aims to transform European maritime ports into energy hubs by establishing Living Labs Networks across Europe.

These networks enable collaboration between stakeholders and real-life testing of clean energy innovations. POTENT-X focuses on renewable energy technologies, port governance, and business models.

The initiative enhances energy systems, digitalization, and infrastructure, aiming for sustainable port operations and successful energy transitions.



OBJECTIVES

The project will transform European ports into dynamic, sustainable energy hubs by advancing clean energy technologies and fostering digital innovation through:

POTENT-TFL-FIGURE

1. Technological Advancement and Integration: Optimize renewable energy systems (wind, solar, alternative fuels) and enhance digital infrastructure through smart ports and digital twins, aiming for Technology Readiness Level 7.

 

2. Stakeholder Engagement and Societal Alignment: Foster collaboration among stakeholders to ensure societal acceptance, aligning the energy transition with societal needs and achieving Societal Readiness Level 6.

THe European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL)

The European Network of Living Labs (ENoLL) is an international non-profit association based in Brussels (Belgium) that aims to promote and enhance user-driven innovation ecosystems, more precisely, the Living Labs concept. ENoLL focuses on facilitating knowledge exchange, joint actions, and project partnerships among its +480 members, influencing EU policies, promoting Living Labs, and enabling their implementation worldwide.


The ENoLL network aims to create pan-European experiments and prototypes for new markets, based on the Digital Single Market. It is an open engagement platform where new business models can be co-designed, experimented with, and developed, all based on a quadruple helix approach, creating safety nets for experiments and prototypes with new roles of the public sector as enabler and catalyzer.
