31.08.2011 - Press Release

CISC Semiconductor GmbH starts into research and development phase of the European ARTEMIS Joint Undertaking project "Internet of Energy for Electric Mobility" (IoE) - officially started in May 2011 - and hence  broadens its activities towards developing a way of accessing the Energy Grid

A total budget of around 45 Million Euro will be jointly invested by CISC and its 41 partners (industrial companies, research institutions and  universities) from 10 European Countries within the next three years to provide solutions for access to and optimization of energy management for the Energy Grid. The project is funding by the ARTEMIS Joint  Undertaking and the national public funding agencies from the respective partners (for CISC in Austria the Austrian Research Promotion Agency FFG).

CISC Semiconductor will develop intelligent interfaces between the energy grid and the Internet, to link energy producers, suppliers and consumers alike. The core part of CISC's interfaces will build an identification platform that enables personalized secure access to the Smart Energy Grid and automatic invoicing by using secure identification technology with e.g. a Smartphone, where CISC experts can draw on many years of profound knowledge regarding secure wireless identification.
