description: This deliverable (D8.3 Dissemination and Exploitation Plan (V2)) is the successor of D8.2 (Dissemination and Exploitation Plan) and outlines GreenCharge’s dissemination and exploitation activities and strategy. It contains both the activities that were already carried out during the project as well as the activities that are planned after project completion. The exploitation process of GreenCharge can be divided into six steps (some of these steps are not applicable to all of the results): 1st draft of key exploitable results, intellectual property rights and exploitation plan: at the start of the project, a wide range of initial key exploitable results were identified. Initial exploitation strategies were developed and agreements on intellectual property rights have been made. Development of exploitation framework: GreenCharge’s exploitation activities are grounded on its exploitation framework: a framework that has been developed in order to establish a common understanding of concepts related to innovation, exploitation, dissemination and communication, and to support the planning and implementation of exploitation activities within GreenCharge. Development of light business plans: in order to define the exploitation potential of GreenCharge’s results, the project partners have developed a light business plan (LBP) for their results. Participation in Horizon Results Booster Service – Exploitation planning: the aim of this service was to strengthen the capacity of the project (partners) in using the research results and improve the exploitation strategy. Participation in Horizon Results Booster Service – Business Plan Development: the aim of this service was to assist GreenCharge’s partners to bring their results closer to the market by developing an effective business plan, and by preparing to secure appropriate funding for the implementation of their project results. Revision of KERs + IPR + EP document: the confidential document which covers the description of the results, the exploitation plans and intellectual property rights was revised at the end of the project. A prioritisation has been made to distinguish between Key Exploitable Results and Main Results. As described in the 6th step of the exploitation process, GreenCharge’s results have been prioritised in order to be able to make more concrete exploitation plans. This is done based on five aspects: climate for change/competitors, potential impact, willingness to exploit, partner’s ranking and evaluation results. The results that were identified as Key Exploitable Results (and are planning to exploit their result commercially) have developed light business plans. The following results were selected as key exploitable results: EV Fleet and Charge Management Prototype Smart Energy Management Module KPI Calculator and Visualiser Simulator Tool Reference Architecture Evaluation Framework The exploitation plans for both the key exploitable results as well as the main results are bundled in a confidential exploitation document. This document covers the following exploitation and dissemination aspects: Description of the result (including potential users, value proposition, competitors, etc.) IPR registry information (including information on ownership, access rights, use restrictions, etc.) Exploitation planning (including type of exploitation, exploitation strategy, dissemination means, etc.)
