Demand Response in Block of Buildings

Deliverables

Guidelines for future pilots

This deliverable report will present an overall comparative analysis of the results from the four pilots documented in D5.2, and draw lessons learnt and replication guidelines for future pilots.

Communication and Dissemination plan

This deliverable will present the Communication and Dissemination plan that identifies, organises and defines the management and promotion of project results. The actual implementation of the plan will be reported in yearly periodic reports. The Communication and Dissemination plan is updated at m24 to match with the strategy delivered in the interim Exploitation plan (D2.5).

Installation reports

This deliverable will describe the installation and commissioning process that was followed at each of the four demonstrations, including an evaluation of any challenges and user feedback from the installations.

Implementation strategies

This deliverable will present the strategies to be used for implementing the solutions integrated in WP3 at the demonstration sites. The efforts undertaken to liaise with the end users while developing these strategies are described. Finally the report includes schedules for the deployment of equipment and the tests planned to be conducted in tasks 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5.

Market and stakeholders analysis

A comprehensive market and stakeholder’s analysis of Demand/Response in Block of Buildings for different energy and geographical contexts.

Data management plan

D1.3 – Data management plan (m16) Data management plan for the participation to the ‘Pilot on Open Research Data in Horizon 2020’.

Demonstration scenarios

Detailed description of the scenarios; detailed description of the four demonstration cases; stakeholders’ expectations report and insights.

Evaluation of demonstration sites

This deliverable report will present the evaluations of the four demonstrations in accordance with the specifications of D5.1. It will include both quantitative and qualitative results. It will also present an analysis of the consequences of the findings of the evaluations presented for the utility and potential further development of the solutions demonstrated in DR-BOB.

Monitoring and validation strategies

This deliverable report will present the strategies developed for monitoring the case study demonstrations to be undertaken as part of WP4. The strategies presented will include both methods for quantitative validation, including data capture and relevant KPIs, and those catering for more qualitative evaluation using aspects such as contextual interviews, self-observations, and/or questionnaires.

Stakeholder Dissemination and exploitation Events

Project stakeholder dissemination and exploitation events: three workshops with stakeholders interested in exploitation and replication. One specific aim is also to attract representatives from EU countries not represented in the DR-BOB consortium.

Public Web Portal and project promotional materials

This deliverable includes: • the DR-BOB Public web portal: the web portal will be initiated within the first month of project start date and reviewed and updated every month during the lifetime of the project. • the DR-BOB promotional video; • the DR-BOB leaflet (electronic PDF version and 1000 hard copies); • the DR-BOB roll-up poster to use during events and presentations.

Final project brochure

An attractive and concise document highlighting the project main conclusions (from D1.4), and advertising the market and service offers developed in the exploitation plan (D2.4). This document will be printed in a limited number of copies for participation in market-oriented exhibitions. It will also be available in digital format for online publications.

Final project event

The DR-BOB final project event will be a half-a-day public dissemination event. It will be held at the end of project, in order to present at a largest audience the final DR-BOB efforts and results and to kick-off the implementation of the Exploitation plan (D2.5).

Evaluation data

This deliverable will be the data both qualitative (i.e. completed surveys) and quantitative (i.e. detailed energy monitoring data) results as specified in D5.1 for the evaluation of the solutions implemented.
