Documents, reports (22)

Pilot Sites Specification Report

This report describes the commonalities and idiosyncrasies of the different test sites. Reference to both type of appliances, technical infrastructure (AMS, control equipment, etc.) and local grid topology will be made. Focus on local production, existing demand-response programs, new loads will be addressed. This will be fed into task T7.2 A thorough analysis of geographical, demographical and sociographical aspects will be made in order to characterize the end-user group. The report will also treat business aspects related to retail pricing, tariffs, consumption levels, load profiles, services available and other things that represent standards of local day-to-day operations prior to EMPOWER deployment.

Communications Test Report

The Test Report will contain a documentation of the results from the tests of the API functions.

Feasibility Report

This report describes the results of the feasibility analysis and the field devices integration work.

Policy implications

The insights on prosumer business models will be transferred into a detailed set of policy recommendations.

Report on user behaviour, user acceptance and user involvement

This report sums up the monitoring task and data analysis along with results from a user survey carried out to gauge user acceptance, involvement and feedback at the different test sites. Important comparisons will be done.

Dissemination Plan

The Dissemination plan must show, in detail, the activities to be performed along the life of the project; stakeholders to be addressed, related activities, activities schedule, KPIs and resources, identifying the summits and events linked to each stakeholder profile, and establishing how and when to participate. The plan will be reviewed at M18.

Trading concept development

This report will define the final trading concept to be implemented. The report will describe the full market and the associated trading mechanisms. This will be presented in business oriented terms and use economically parametric to describe and evaluate the models included. It will also constitute a basis for the work producing D6.4.

Technical specifications for software development

These specifications constitute the technical basis for implementation of the market and trading concept developed in the project and all the interfaces capturing the communication between the management/trading level and the parts that optimize use of resources and control the physical flow of communication, energy and money.

Timing-based business models

Timing-based business models will provide a new type of model for providing flexibility to the grid.

Communications Specification Plan

This plan will contain a description of the quality of service and the communication use cases that will be needed by the BPL.

Final project report

The Consortium shall submit a final report to the EC within 60 days after the end of the project. This final report shall comprise a final publishable summary report covering the results, conclusions and socio-economic impact of the project.

Models of prosumer acceptance

Based on experimental studies with prosumers D2.3 provides a guideline for prosumer acceptance of different business models.

Dissemination and communication report, final

Update of the D9.4 deliverable, including all the dissemination activities and the results of all the project period.

Functional and technical documentation of relevant API-functions

This will contain the complete functional and technical documentation of the API functions.

Prosumer oriented trade

This report presents the results of “T6.2 Exploration of theoretical and practical solutions for prosumer oriented trade”. It will contain an analysis of existing theoretical and practical solutions pertinent to the project. The report should further describe the mechanisms of trade to be used in the rest of the project.

Dissemination and communication report, year 1

Report of the activities performed during the first year of the project, including website number of visitors, number of website updates of information, and participation in events.

Deployment Report

This report specifies the technical customizations done to meet the specifics of the different pilot sites described in D7.1. It also describes method of deployment, user recruitment and initial acceptance. It highlights configurations made and the contributions of local co-players.

Ideal-type business models in local smart grids

Based on a QCA of local smart grid business models worldwide, D2.2 identifies 3 to 5 Ideal-type business models.

Market design

This report presents the results from T6.1 and lays the foundation for T6.3 and T6.4. The report will encompass an evaluation of existing work and provide a description of the market design chosen for further development.

Validation and Testing Report

This report documents the actual operations in the different test areas and the behaviour of the technical systems during the validation and the testing report. It states the dominant directions of flow, storage levels, trading volume and the dominating forms of exchanges during the day, the week and the full period of testing.

Dissemination and communication report, year 2 and revised plan

Update of the D9.3 deliverable with the activities and results of year 2.

Communications Test Plan

This Test Plan will contain a full description of the test procedures for verification of the API functions.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Project website and social networks profiles

The Website will be available, in a public URL with a name related to the project, and a basic structure able to explain the goals, targets, Consortium, having a space for updating the evolution of the project.

Other (1)

API-functions implemented, tested and verified

This will be the set of all relevant and readily tested API-functions that are needed for communication between the BPL and the PL.
