Danish participation in EIA EBC Annex 82
- Identify critical aspects and possible solutions utilizing the Energy Flexibility in clusters of buildings and communities
- Increase knowledge on barriers and motivation for stakeholders and investigate how this can be utilized to make the stakeholders active players in the utilization of energy flexibility
- Facilitate the development of business cases for utilization of the Energy Flexibility
The foreseen deployment of large amounts of intermittent renewable energy sources (RES) may seriously affect the operation and stability of energy networks. It will, therefore, be necessary to control the energy use to maximize matching with the instantaneous energy production.
In-depth knowledge of the energy flexibility services that buildings, especially clusters of buildings, may provide and the stakeholder viewpoint on how to utilize this energy flexibility are essential for the design of future resilient Smart Energy Networks. This information is important for the utility companies who will ultimately utilize this energy flexibility, the companies developing business cases for products and services that will support the roll-out of Smart Energy Networks, the policy makers involved in shaping the future energy systems and the government entities setting requirements for new and existing buildings.
The identified research areas are:
- scaling from single buildings to clusters of buildings (aggregation);
- energy flexibility and resilience in multi-carrier energy systems (electricity, district heating/cooling and gas);
- acceptance/engagement of the stakeholders; and
- business models.
