The Exploitation Strategy and Plan incl. Lessons learned provides an overview of the project“s results and lessons learned, exploitation routes, with special emphasis on the route towards innovation procurement, and activities to support the exploitation. It further presents a strategy on how to make optimal use of them and describes how stakeholder benefit from the project.
Deliverable D2.3: Final Functional Requirements Report
D2.3 Final Functional Requirement Report is built on D2.2 Functional requirements report v1 (from February 2025) and offers a prioritized and specified description of the end-user needs and requirements for solutions supplying energy. The updated needs and requirements have been specified in several steps from prioritization workshop to surveys within the consortium and with EU Member as well as UCPM participating
states.
Deliverable D3.5: Procurement Strategy Document
The Procurement Strategy Document outlines the methodological approach adopted by the Consortium, based on the findings gathered during the preparatory phase. It sets out the rationale for selecting the PCP process and describes the overall procurement strategy, including the procedural steps, governance structure, evaluation methodology and contract management to be applied throughout the PCP lifecycle.
Deliverable D3.1: Workshop and Seminar Report
This deliverable aims to describe the training sessions and seminars organised during the POWERBASE project.
Deliverable D3.3: Business case and cost analysis
This document presents the results of the Business Case and Cost Analysis. It provides an in-depth assessment of the current energy supply systems used by civil protection stakeholders and evaluates the economic justification for investing in innovative, modular, and sustainable alternatives. The findings form the basis for estimating potential future investments and help define the path towards a future PCP process.
Deliverable D3.2: Report on OMC
The present report presents the process of the Open Market Consultation (also referred to as āOMCā), together with the input from external parties. This document provides (i) an overview of the important role played by the Open Market Consultation in the procurement process, (ii) a presentation of the Open Market Consultation events and their expected impact, (iii) an analysis of the feedback collected through the activities organised during the Open Market Consultation and (iv) recommendations for future innovation procurement.
Deliverable D2.4: SOTA report & actors map V1
The “SOTA Report and Actors Maps V1” presents the methodology and initial findings of the “POWERBASE State of the Art (SOTA) Review: Research and Existing Solutions.ā This document includes concise technology fact sheets that detail technical performance, functionality, and preliminary evaluation of basic requirements, such as logistics. Each fact sheet offers a snapshot of technologies relevant to a low-emission energy supply system, primarily focusing on commercial off -the-shelf solutions, while also highlighting emerging solutions in research and development. Additionally, they provide an initial overview of relevant suppliers and their products or research.
Deliverable D2.2: Functional Requirements Report v1
D2.2 Functional Requirement Report version 1 (Final version due in M12) offers a detailed description of the end-user needs and requirements for solutions supplying energy. The given needs and requirements have been collected in workshops within the PERO (POWERBASE Emergency Response Organisations) and EERO (External Emergency Response Organisations) community in workshop settings (1x WS 2 online and 9x national WS3 in person).
Deliverable D2.1: Emergency Response Scenario definition
The āScenario Definitionā deliverable provides detailed descriptions of three common emergency response scenarios developed within the POWERBASE project, focusing on wildfires, floods and earthquakes. It outlines the characteristics and energy demands of bases of operations and emergency shelters associated with each disaster, indicating the potential challenges in providing power to camps.
Deliverable D1.1: Project Management Handbook
The POWERBASE Project Management Handbook is intended to support partners in the effective and efficient administrative and financial management of the project. It describes the project management and collaboration processes and tools in POWERBASE. The handbook is provided in complement to official documents (Grant Agreement and its annexes, the Consortium Agreement) which in case of conflict or uncertainty, supersede the Project Management handbook.
Deliverable D4.1: Dissemination and Communication Plan
The Dissemination and Communication Plan outlines the measures to increase public awareness of the POWERBASE project and its results. The plan describes extensive stakeholder engagement measures based on tailored communication activities and a comprehensive dissemination strategy for the entire duration of the project.
Press Release Project Kick-Off – English
Twelve emergency response and research organisations have joined forces to prepare future procurement of renewable energy technologies to set the path towards low-emission emergency operations and significantly improve workplace and accommodation conditions of emergency responders and sheltered people. The project officially kicks off today in Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
Press Release Project Kick-Off – Deutsch
Zwölf Nothilfe- und Forschungsorganisationen haben sich in POWERBASE zusammengeschlossen, um den Weg für emissionsarme Katastropheneinsätze zu ebnen. Das Projekt gibt den Anstoà für die Entwicklung und Beschaffung von moderner Technologie für Versorgungscamps und Bereitstellungsräume. Durch die Nutzung von erneuerbaren Energien sollen dabei die Arbeits- und Unterkunftsbedingungen von Einsatzkräften und Schutzsuchenden deutlich verbessert werden. Das internationale Projekt-Konsortium startet das Forschungsprojekt POWERBASE heute offiziell in Frankfurt am Main.
