RENergetic Project - DSO/TSO Workshop

The goal of the RENergetic project is to demonstrate the improvement of efficiency and energy autarky, the community involvement in and the socio-economic viability of three urban energy islands:  The New Docks in Ghent (BE), the Warta Campus in Poznan (PL) and the Hospital and Research campus in Segrate-Milan (Italy).RENergetic empowers Renewable Energy Communities to inhabit Energy Islands based on an Economy of Quality (quality attributed to the value of living and working in a clean energy society), fueling their involvement in processes traditionally hidden for local communities such as heat supply.

RENergetic Project

RENergetic representatives invite all the European TSOs and DSOs to a unique workshop, addressing the current challenges of system operators

The next generation energy system with a high level of decentralization of energy generation, a high volatility of distributed energy supply sources and an abundance of interconnecting as heat pumps will lead to an increasing coupling of the sectors heat and electricity. Furthermore, the boost of e-mobility in various forms will add the sector mobility to the picture. At the same time the flexibility of resources, i.e., their ability to adapt their behaviour to control signals, is becoming the centre of attention for smart energy network operations. The vision of consuming energy close to its source by using this flexibility gave rise to the concept of energy communities that aim to increase their self-sufficiency. At the same time, providing grid stability is becoming more important for the power system as synchronous generators are replaced with renewable energy systems. Therefore, the use of this flexibility to provide grid stability through ancillary services is a second area of future developments.RENergetic aims to leverage this flexibility inside energy communities to increase their internal sustainability and reduce negative impacts on the grid. First, this is done by focusing on the energy community’s own consumption and internal potential for optimized operation. Second, the flexibility is considered as a valuable resource that can contribute to the outside grid. The requirements of existing ancillary services are used to investigate the impact that energy communities may have.Joins us for this exciting workshop, to hear industry and academia report on current and future developments aimed at enabling a sustainable energy transition. A primary focus will be on the enabling optimization approaches, interfaces and technical realization to do so. To support these approaches, future directions for enabling the required communication between distributed renewable energy systems in a resilient manner are presented. To supplement these technical aspects, stakeholders from Belgium and Austria will discuss the current legal frameworks and barriers in their countries to enabling energy sharing either within communities or in peer-to-peer arrangements.The event aims to enable a timely exchange of current developments between academia and industry partners. The goal is to share experiences, current research results and future directions to connect resources in the energy sectors and interconnect the energy sectors themselves. Its target audience are distribution or transmission system operators, and stakeholders in current of future energy communities across Europe.DisclaimerRENergetic has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 957845.The sole responsibility for the content of this agenda and the workshop lies with the authors and speakers.

Agenda

RENergetic investigates the use of resources in sector-coupled energy communities to improve self-sufficiency, to reduce CO2 emissions and to reduce costs. The optimization approach of RENergetic and the impact flexibility for ancillary services has on self-sufficiency are highlighted in this talk.

RENergetic Results: Flexibility and Ancillary Service Provision in LEC

Practices of Energy Sharing in different EU Member States: Solutions and Issue

APG joins the discussion to report on their plans on how to integrate flexibility for ancillary services and balancing services into the transmission network. A special focus is put on the required interfaces, data handling and the role that third-party aggregators can play.

Flexibility Aggregation and Interfaces: An Austrian Perspective

This talk presents future research and opportunities to enable communication between resources across smart distribution networks. Specifically, communication and computation combining in the case of a blackout are discussed. Satellite communication and dedicated terrestrial networks are compared. Thus, the resilience of the power system can be ensured even when faced with a disaster

New Concepts for Resilient Communication in Smart Grids

To end the workshop, the speakers of each talk will join to discuss the main conclusions of the workshop.
