Useful tools and datasets
The Energy and Industry Geography Lab (EIGL) is a tool for geographical data related to energy, industry and infrastructure. The tool makes it possible to find and filter energy-related data, and create and share maps displaying this data.
The focus of the Photovoltaic Geographical Information System (PVGIS) is research in solar resource assessment, photovoltaic (PV) performance studies, and the dissemination of knowledge and data about solar radiation and PV performance.
This mapping exercise is carried out by the JRC on a regular basis and it represents the most comprehensive inventory of Smart Grid projects in Europe. It brings together inputs and feedback from utilities, industry, regulators, research and academia. Our thanks go particularly to all the...
In support of development of a European CO2 Storage Atlas the European Commission funded the CO2StoP project, which made a first assessment of the European CO2 storage capacity, both onshore and offshore. The CO2StoP project also created a dataset of geological parameters that enables the assessment of potential geological CO2 storage capacity in the EU Member States. The database and the visualization tool have been made based on the project data.
