The EU Projects Zone Podcast: TRINITY and Farcross with Alvaro Nofuentes and Anastasis Tzoumpas

In this episode of the EU Projects Zone podcast, Areti Ntaradimou talks to Alvaro Nofuentes and Anastasis Tzoumpas about the cross border electricity interconnections that both TRINITY and Farcross promote.

Alvaro Nofuentes is the project coordinator of TRINITY and Anastasis Tzoumpas the technical manager of Farcross.

In this episode of the podcast they discuss the similarities and the differences between the two projects as well as ways that they can collaborate to promote cross border collaboration in a major scale.

"TRINITY is a project that focuses in enhancing the collaboration between the TSOs and facilitating the operation of the electricity markets" says Alvaro.

Farcross, on the other hand, "is a project that aims to facilitate the cross border flows between countries and also to unlock the capacities of the existing grids" says Anastasis.

Both projects want to help improve the cross border flow of electricity. They mostly focus on the South Eastern Europe, as well as the Central Europe.

"After some discussions, we figured out that we have a lot of synergy potential and together we have developed a common paper. There we show how our technologies are complementary" says Alvaro.

Extra focus is given to creating a resilient and safe grid when mobilizing RES, although according to Anastasis "The grids are not ready yet and thats why we need to apply innovation".

Listen to the discussion and find out also how TRINITY and Farcross unlock resources for the cross border collaboration flows despite the different rules and regulations in the various member states.
