On 11-13 May 2020 MUSE GRIDS has had its third General Assembly and first Review meeting with its Project Officer from the European Commission. The third General Assembly of the project took place – naturally – in online format, breaking the trend of previous meetings which took place in Genoa, Italy, and Aalborg, Denmark.

The cycle of meetings started on 11 May, gathering only the partners directly involved in the ongoing technical activities of the project, namely Aalborg University, Cartif, Astea, Th!nk-e, Technical University of Eindhoven, as well as our newly arrived partner number 19, ALTRA.

On Tuesday 12 May, a regular General Assembly took place in the morning, with presentations from all 9 Work Packages of the project and their updates – an exercise for the Review Meeting which would take place the following day.

On Wednesday 13 May a whole-day meeting was scheduled with MUSE GRID’s Project Officer. An overview of the last six months of progress was given by the partners as a conclusion to the Technical Report which was recently submitted. Partners also got the chance to touch upon how the recent Covid-19 outbreak is impacting their activities.

Though it was not an usual General Assembly, it was nevertheless a great meeting. Who better to keep our Consortium community going strong if not people working with energy communities?
