Descrizione del progetto
La piattaforma scalabile domanda-risposta migliora l’efficienza energetica
Il progetto DELTA, finanziato dall’UE, si propone di sviluppare una piattaforma di gestione domanda-risposta (DR) che introduca scalabilità e adattabilità negli strumenti di aggregazione dei dati energetici. Il sistema integrerà molteplici strategie e politiche degli attori del mercato energetico, rendendolo una soluzione modulare e a prova di futuro. L’architettura autonoma consentirà agli utilizzatori finali di evitare complessi segnali basati su prezzi e incentivi, supportando prosumatori attivi, consapevoli e impegnati. DELTA fornirà servizi di mercato e di rete su scala reale, fornendo servizi di elasticità DR esplicita e implicita in grado di superare le attuali limitazioni normative del mercato. Gli algoritmi di abbinamento energetico multi-agente e ad autoapprendimento aumenteranno l’interoperabilità del sistema. I nuovi metodi blockchain e gli smart contract dovrebbero contribuire a migliorare la sicurezza dei dati nelle future applicazioni domanda-risposta. Il concetto proposto sarà testato in due progetti pilota a Cipro e nel Regno Unito.
Obiettivo
DELTA proposes a DR management platform that distributes parts of the Aggregator’s intelligence into lower layers of a novel architecture, based on VPP principles, in order to establish a more easily manageable & computationally efficient DR solution, ultimately aiming to introduce scalability & adaptiveness into the Aggregator’s DR toolkits; the DELTA engine will be able to adopt & integrate multiple strategies & policies provided from its energy market stakeholders, making it authentically modular & future-proof.
DELTA will also deliver a fully autonomous architectural design, enabling end-users to escape the hassle of responding to complex price/incentive-based signals, while facilitating active, aware & engaged prosumers, based on innovative award schemes, a social collaboration platform & enhanced DR visualisation. Provision of full-scale market & grid services will be made possible by delivering explicit & implicit-based DR elasticity services, while pushing current market regulatory limitations so that they can be surpassed, and satisfying potential grid constraints related to flexibility activation through Multi-Factor Forecasting and Deep Reinforcement Learning Profiling.
Furthermore, DELTA will propose & implement novel multi-agent based, self-learning energy matchmaking algorithms to enable aggregation, segmentation & coordination of several diverse supply & demand clusters, designed end-to-end using well-known, open protocols (i.e. OpenADR), for increasing interoperability. DELTA will set the milestone for data security in future DR applications by not only implementing novel block-chain methods & authentication mechanisms, but also by making use of Smart Contracts which would further secure & facilitate Aggregators-to-Prosumers transactions.
Two pilots in UK & Cyprus will realise the DELTA concept, covering a wide variety of residential/tertiary loads (>11GWh), RES generation (>14GWh) & energy storage systems (>9MWh) (average annual measurements).
