E2COMATION Life-cycle optimization of industrial energy efficiency by a distributed control and decision-making automation platform

Coordinator: CONSIGLIO NAZIONALE DELLE RICERCHE (IT)

Improving industrial energy efficiency at European Manufacturing level requires the integration of energy data with advanced optimization techniques to guide a company decision making. E2COMATION intends to address the optimization of energy usage, at multiple hierarchical layers of a manufacturing process as well as considering the whole life-cycle perspective across the value chain. To this purpose, it aims at providing a cross-sectorial methodological framework and a modular technological platform to monitor, predict, evaluate impact of the behavior of a factory across energy and the life-…

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €8.1M toward a total project budget of €10.6M — a funding rate of 77%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 4.2 years from 2020-11-01 to 2025-01-31.
