medio ambiente clima energía sostenibilidad naturaleza europeo. LIFE Project Grants Expected Impact: Proposals should present the concrete results which will be delivered by the activities and demonstrate how these results will contribute to the topic-specific impacts. This demonstration should rely on a solid analysis of the current situation, realistic assumptions and baselines, and establish clear causality links between proposed activities, results and impacts. In terms of qualitative impact, proposals under this topic should demonstrate how they will contribute to: Enhanced operational efficiency, resilience and flexibility of distribution networks through accelerated and fit-for-purpose digitalisation of DSOs Strengthened institutional and human capacity of DSOs, in particular small/local DSOs, to plan, implement and govern digital transformation in line with EU energy and digital policy frameworks Improved integration of DERs and demand-side measures and participation of active consumers. In terms of quantitative impact, proposals should quantify their results and impacts using the indicators provided for the topic, when they are relevant for the proposed activities. Proposals are not expected to address all the listed impacts and indicators. The results an
