Energy Society
🔋 Funding for Project Energy Society
Sweden's innovation agency, Vinnova, has awarded $100,000 to Lund for the CoAction project, in which Project Energy Society is included. The goal is to create a new electricity grid with energy sharing, enabling a low fixed price for electricity.
🔋 The first prototype of the Energy Society will be built here
In Lund, in the south of Sweden, the first prototype for the Energy Society will be built and is expected to be operational next year.
🔋 Small batteries stepped in - showcasing the strength of the Energy Society
A short circuit in a switchgear knocked out two nuclear power reactors, the subway, traffic lights and disrupted radio transmissions. A savior in times of need was a few hundred household batteries.
🔋 They will create an open energy-sharing standard, EP
The internet runs on the world's largest standard, the Internet Protocol. Now a group is creating an open standard for energy sharing, the Energy Protocol, EP.
💡 The Energy Society Manifesto
At this time in history, an abundance of clean energy for a low fixed cost is possible.
💡 Optimist’s Edge: Electricity too cheap to meter
💡 With storage and the ability to share energy you can get all the electricity you need for a low flat fee, creating a new society.
🔌 Launch of Project Energy Society – electricity for a low flat fee
The goal is to be able to offer all the electricity you need at a low fixed price. Anyone who thinks that would be important for society and wants to contribute to that, is welcome to join and help.
🔌 Jonas Birgersson: "All the electricity you need for a low, fixed fee"
