BRIDGE is a European Commission initiative uniting Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe energy and digitalisation projects to collaborate on cross-cutting issues and bring the findings to policy work.

INDEPENDENT participates in all of the four working groups: data management, business models, regulation and consumer & citizen engagement.

The Energy Nexus Cluster is a collaborative platform for energy projects, organised by the GLocalFlex project. The aim is to identify common topics, share knowledge and combine efforts for a stronger visibility and impact.

INDEPENDENT joined the cluster in 2025.
