CROSS (CooRdination Of Scenarios for SWEET) is a part of the four projects sponsored by the Swiss Federal Office of Energy’s “SWEET” programme (Call 1-2020): DecarbCH, EDGE, PATHFNDR and SURE and coordinated by the Energy Science Center in ETH Zurich.

The main goal of SWEET-CROSS is to increase the comparability of the simulation from the four consortia by coordinating assumptions and scenarios; and by providing a platform with model documentation (CROSS catalog) and a platform with open energy research data (CROSSDat). This facilitates collaboration among SWEET consortia, communication with different stakeholders, and improves transparency and reproducibility of the results.

The CROSS catalog collects information about the existing research activities and models in all the SWEET consortia.

CROSSDat is a platform with unified access to SWEET and energy related (research) data, irrespective of where it is stored and curated.
