Digital Technologies to Increase the Energyefficiency in Electric Motor Systems
This figure gives an overview of the technologies that were identified as relevant for energy efficiency in electric motor systems in several workshops, in the survey and interviews. Starting on the left-hand side, technologies listed are smart sensors, advanced control on the level of machines and the Internet of things enabling communication between the different levels and components (in dark blue). Furthermore, the next level is the use of possibilities to analyse data and optimize operation (in green): data analytics on both the level of motor systems and on the level of production lines or even the whole company. Continuous monitoring of the different appliances is also significant. Technologies adding advantages to these applications (in grey) are digital twins, cloud-based services and artificial intelligence. Augmented reality can help to implement the suggested measures. Three technologies that are not directly related to the optimization of motor driven systems, but are of further interest include drones, 3D printing and advanced robotics.

Important instruments to overcome barriers to using digital production technologies
Around three quarters of the respondents consider the development of education programmes and the standardisation process to harmonise protocols, as well as subsidies for research as important policy instruments to overcome these barriers.

Overview of possible measuring points for the digitalization of compressed air systems
The diagram shows a compressor in the form of a larger square. Virbration measurement and current and voltage measurement are added here as small circles. There is a small rectangle on the square with the note: Internal compressor control. There is also a thick connection to another rectangle for higher-level control. Nearby is a small circle for the room temperature. A line comes out of the compressor to a compressed air filter with electronic pressure monitoring and on to a larger rectangle, the dryer. After two more compressed air filters, the line runs to the pressure tank, a larger oval with three feet. The line continues out of the pressure tank. The small circles with the designations for pressure measurement, volume flow measurement, temperature measurement, wobble point measurement and measurement for residual oil content and particles are then shown here one after the other, and an electrically operated stopcock is also drawn in. A dotted line in the form of a rectangle is drawn around these components for the compressor station. The pipe runs further out of this rectangle. Pressure measurement and volume flow measurement as well as an electrically operated shut-off valve are also drawn. At the end of the line, another rectangle is drawn with the label: Consumer. Within the dotted rectangle above the components mentioned are two symbols, one in the form of a computer screen labeled: Data evaluation and analysis, above it a blue cloud labeled: Cloud (optional). All the measurements mentioned are connected to the data evaluation via a dotted line.

Integration of PECTA within the 4E technology program
Since March 2019, the 4E Technology Program consists of 4 different Annexes: EMSA (Electric Motor Systems Annex), SSL (Solid State Lighting Annex), EDNA (Electronic Devices & Networks Annex) and PECTA (Power Electronic Conversion Technology Annex).

Structure of PECTA during Phase 1
In the course of PECTA's Phase 1, two tasks were processed. Task 1: Efficiency Potential in Applications. Task 2: Roadmaps for Power Devices. The position of the Operating Agent was filled by Austria. Task 1 and Task 2 were carried out with participation from Austria, Sweden and Switzerland. The Industry Advisory Group is coordinated by Switzerland.

Central Characteristics of Energy Communities and Their Interactions
Representation of the central characteristics of energy communities (ECs) and their interrelationships. A strong mutual influence is found between the actors of the EC and the management and decision-making processes, as well as between the actors and value propositions. Influences during the founding process occur between value propositions and founding actors, value propositions and the initiation mode, and founding actors on the initiation mode, funding options, and management and decision-making. Operational influences include the impact of value propositions on the management of energy resources and general management and decision-making, as well as the influence of the initiation mode on management and decision-making, and of funding options on the management of energy resources.

Analysis of Gender and Diversity Factors in Relation to Energy Consumption Flexibility
The graphic provides an overview of the approach to the quantitative analysis of household flexibility and the conclusions derived from it. Electricity consumption, recorded via smart meters, was combined with diversity dimensions and associated aspects such as gender, household structure, income, and available technologies. Treatments implemented during field tests, such as tariff reductions for peak load reductions, were documented in the dataset. Quantitative methods, including F-tests or Levene's test for variance, regression analysis, and plots of average consumption, were used to gain insights into consumption patterns and identify diversity-specific differences. Building on these findings, data quality criteria for future research were formulated, and a stronger inclusion of diverse user groups in demand-side management (DSM) programs was recommended.

Graph Datastructure
Graphbased datastructure of the open access IEA-TCP dataset.

Visualisation of TCPs
After selecting a topic (in this example "Electricity transmission and distribution" was selected), this graph shows all tasks (activities) focussing on the selected topic. The topics are structured according to the IEA energy RD&D budget/expenditure statistics. Additionally, you can see the related Technology Collaboration Programmes (TCPs). Activities which had been ongoing in Summer 2020 from all IEA-TCPs are covered in this analysis. You can re-arrange the different bubbles to better meet the needs of your analysis. If a TCP consists of more than one task (activity), it also contains one entry in the database labelled “ExCo-Activities”.
