UBITECH successfully concluded the DOOR project (Hardware Roots of Trust as an Enabler of Trustworthiness in Digital Transactions) that empowers participating entities in the ESSIF-Framework to establish trust by providing strong verifiable evidence and assurances on the origin and integrity of the presented verifiable credentials. DOOR achieves this goal by building a trusted layer between interacting parties that is based on strong cryptographic privacy-preserving tools. In this way, DOOR can enable the handling of VCs requiring higher level of assurances locally at the holder’s wallet.

On 27 and 28 June 2022, the H2020 project OneNet is organising a two-part online event to shine a light on the OneNet demonstration clusters. OneNet includes several demos that are organised in four clusters covering the whole of Europe. Each cluster involves multiple DSOs and TSOs to implement new market concepts and new flexibility solutions and test them in a real life environment. In this online event, each demo cluster will briefly present the novel solutions they are bringing to the European electricity sector, followed by a moderated discussion on a specific, distinct topic.
