Plug&plAy eneRgy ManagEmeNt for hybrID Energy Storage

Project description

Hybrid energy storage for electricity and heating

The rise of new technologies in the energy system transition is resulting in the unavoidable fragmentation of existing platforms, protocols and standards. Despite these challenges, cross-platform and cross-domain interoperability must be ensured. The EU-funded PARMENIDES project will focus on ontologies that provide an opportunity to address cross-platform interoperability. Specifically, it will extend existing ontologies to develop a new ontology and provide a knowledge base focusing on electricity and heating for buildings, customers and energy communities. The project will focus on hybrid energy storage systems, supporting various use cases. PARMENIDES will develop a new generation of innovative energy management systems capable of using ontology as a knowledge base and demonstrate it in pilots in Austria and Sweden.

Objective

The ongoing transition of the energy system is accompanied by digitalization activities, enabling new applica-tions. This results in a fragmentation of existing platforms, protocols, and standards. Therefore, interoperability among various platforms as well as cross-domain interoperability must be ensured. The usage of ontologies provides an opportunity to address cross-platform and cross-domain interoperability. PARMENIDES aims to develop a new ontology by extending existing ontologies to provide a knowledge base, with a focus on the elec-tricity and heating domain for buildings, customers, and energy communities. It will support different use cases, focusing on the utilization of Hybrid Energy Storage Systems (HESS). Besides the representation of storage technologies, information about energy community customers, their behaviours, and components including their relation will be part of the ontology, providing a standardized vocabulary of the domain of energy communities. This further includes technical, economic, regulatory, behavioural, and social constraints to be considered in operation. To support a number of use cases, a new generation of innovative Energy Management Systems (EMS) will be developed. This system will be capable of using ontology as a knowledge base. This will enable a very generic software design and ensures the scalability and replicability of the solution. As a framework for the integration of the EMS, PARMENIDES will define an information and communication architecture, enabling an interoperable, reliable, and secure exchange of data and instructions. The developed EMS will be demonstrated in very diverse pilots in Austria and Sweden. The Austrian pilot will address energy communities with different storage technologies, the Swedish pilot will focus on flexibility from a very short time scale through innovative heat pump control to electrical and thermal batteries and seasonal storage through geothermal borehole heat exchangers.
