The EUREF-Campus around the historic Schöneberg gasometer runs a "Micro Smart Grid" — a local energy network linking renewable generation, three battery-storage systems, a combined-heat-and-power plant and one of Germany's largest clusters of EV charging points (around 36 docks), operational since roughly 2014. Operated by inno2grid (a Schneider Electric / Deutsche Bahn venture) for campus developer EUREF AG, it doubles as a real-world testbed and hosted the BMBF-funded Mobility2Grid research campus (led by TU Berlin), which studied coupling e-mobility, vehicle-to-grid and smart grids. EUREF states the campus energy supply is CO2-neutral, drawing on wind, solar and biomethane.
