The project brings together academic institutions, research centres and industrial partners to deliver innovative solutions for modern energy. For research organisations, access to real data and testing of theories in practice is a key benefit. In turn, industrial partners will gain the opportunity to innovate their products and services, which will strengthen their competitiveness.

Importance for the region
The ZEUS project – Enhancing the resilience of energy networks in the context of decarbonisation, decentralisation and sustainable socio-economic development – focuses on research and development of technologies for energy generation, transmission and storage. The project has two main research lines. The first will focus on modelling energy systems using mathematical-physical and economic models to analyse the resilience of community energy networks and assess the effectiveness of their implementation. Furthermore, the project will look at the digitisation of hydrogen technologies. For this purpose, digital twin machine components for hydrogen transport and storage will be developed and AEM electrolyzer development will be carried out to optimise their deployment.
Both research directions will use the supercomputing technologies of the IT4Innovations centre and the existing energy infrastructure in the CEETe building.
“The ZEUS project is an important step towards improving the resilience of energy networks, not only within the Czech Republic but also internationally. Thanks to our supercomputing centre, we are able to simulate and analyse complex scenarios in the energy sector, allowing us to design efficient and sustainable solutions.”
