Description
The Deliverable D11.2: Data Management Plan (DMP) - Update provides a comprehensive overview of how data are collected, processed, and managed throughout the EV4EU (Electric Vehicles Management for Carbon Neutrality) project. It defines the principles, methodologies, and responsibilities governing all project datasets, ensuring alignment with the FAIR principles (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable), the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and the Horizon Europe Open Science policy. The document first introduces the general context of the EV4EU project highlighting the methodological framework adopted for data collection and management across Work Packages (WP). It then presents a detailed description of the data generated and used within the project, including their purpose, origin, type, format, and utility. These datasets originate from four main demonstrators, located in Portugal, Denmark, Slovenia, and Greece, and from simulation environments developed to evaluate large-scale electric vehicle (EV) integration, vehicle-to-everything (V2X) management strategies, and their impact on smart grids, cities, and markets. A dedicated section addresses the Co-simulation platform developed in WP3, which integrates heterogeneous data sources to assess the dynamic interaction between EVs, energy systems, and user behaviour. Furthermore, the DMP encompasses the management of societal adoption data collected through surveys and interviews to understand user perceptions and behavioural responses to smart-charging and flexibility schemes. For each data category, the DMP specifies procedures for ensuring data quality, security, documentation, storage, access control, and long-term preservation. Ethical considerations, personal data protection, and licensing conditions are also detailed to guarantee full regulatory compliance. Finally, the DMP establishes the mechanisms for making anonymised and aggregated data publicly available through trusted repositories, promoting transparency, reproducibility, and reusability of results.
