SMARCTIC

'Smart energy management in remote Northern, Peripheral and Arctic regions' project aims to increase the use of energy efficiency and renewable energy solutions in housing and public infrastructures in remote, sparsely populated areas.

We are six project partners and five associated partners from Europe and Atlantic Canada that are working together to:

Provide a Smart Energy Management Model (SEMM) suitable for NPA communities.
Build & test the effectiveness of new smart energy solutions.
Increase NPA's communities innovation capacity to deliver energy solutions.
Disseminate findings outside of the partnership.

We started our journey on the 1st of July 2019 and we will be exchanging experience and learning from each other until the 30th June 2022 with a budget of €1.4 million.

New service contents by implementing technological solutions in Rovaniemi, with the SMARCTIC project.

A fresh-r air exchange unit has been installed in a small local school in the village of Borgarfjordur eystri.

Smart energy-saving solutions will be tested in two local schools, Ådalskolan and Skarpåkerskolan.

SMARCTIC sensors and devices will help to address the preservation of air quality without wasting too much energy.

SMARCTIC project partners from Lapland explain how the energy is used during the winter months

During winter, people spend more time indoors and this fact impacts the energy usage.

Winters are long, cold, and dark in Västernorrland (Sweden). How does this influence energy situation?

Discover the main renewable resources that are available in our SMARCTIC partner region.

Northern Ireland partners are working towards climate change targets and setting long term goals to become a ‘Net Zero Carbon Region’ by 2045.
