Research lines
Three lines that organise CENTRA’s work: how the transition is regulated, how the system is planned and which technologies make it possible.
Policy and regulation for the energy transition
We design and evaluate regulatory frameworks, public policies and economic instruments for a just, decentralised and sustainable energy transition. Our work includes international comparative analysis, impact modelling and technical advice for key electricity sector reforms.
Multi-energy planning and intelligence
We develop advanced models and digital platforms to simulate, optimise and plan integrated energy systems. We bring in real data, climate uncertainty and territorial criteria to support strategic decisions on generation, distribution, storage and efficient energy use.
Applied technology solutions
We design and validate tools and prototypes for monitoring, control and efficient operation of energy networks and facilities. We pursue innovation aimed at concrete sector challenges, with a focus on technology transfer, scalability and adaptation to local contexts.
