Descripción del proyecto
Un conjunto de herramientas digitales para las comunidades energéticas
La integración en la red de las fuentes de energía renovables variables plantea grandes dificultades con respecto a la estabilidad del sistema, debido a los desequilibrios entre la oferta y la demanda. Las comunidades energéticas están surgiendo como un elemento prometedor para promover la participación ciudadana en la transición energética. Sin embargo, se necesitan herramientas de tecnologías de la información y de las comunicaciones (TIC) para extraer y optimizar la flexibilidad de los recursos energéticos residenciales a fin de crear operaciones viables en términos financieros basadas en las necesidades de los ciudadanos. El objetivo del proyecto ACCEPT, financiado con fondos europeos, es desarrollar y ofrecer un conjunto de herramientas digitales que permita a las comunidades energéticas ofrecer servicios digitales innovadores y acceder a flujos de ingresos que puedan respaldar financieramente sus funciones y asegurar su sostenibilidad y eficacia. El marco de ACCEPT se demostrará y validará en cuatro emplazamientos piloto en Grecia, los Países Bajos, España y Suiza, en los que participarán más de tres mil personas y setecientas cincuenta residencias.
Objetivo
Penetration of renewables is a no-regrets option for energy system decarbonization. Despite their benefits for the energy system, the grid integration of variable RES presents major challenges in matching their non-deterministic output to electricity demand. Resolving this necessitates the deployment and penetration of several solutions, a key on being demand response, which in turn depends on the role of prosumers with regards to their engagement with the energy system. Demand flexibility from residential buildings is the main untapped source of flexibility currently in the market and promises significant flexibility potential, especially taking into account the electrification of heat and transport mega-trends. Energy communities are a promising organizational vehicle for involving citizens – who directly control residential demand - in the energy transition, but currently lack the necessary tools to exploit the available opportunities and create financially viable operations based on the provision of services that citizens want. ACCEPT aims to fill this gap by delivering a digital toolbox that energy communities can use to: i) offer innovative and desired digital services, complementing their existing non-digital services to their members and customers, and ii) gain access to revenue streams that can financially support their operations and ensure longevity and well-functioning of the community itself. To achieve this, the ACCEPT consortium is framing the citizen engagement and business modelling activities in the same priority as the technical development ones. Their intertwined implementation will be the critical success factor for the delivery of the ACCEPT solution as a Minimum Viable Product that has already passed preliminary market testing and financial viability checks. The ACCEPT outcomes will be demonstrated and validated in four pilot sites in the Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and Greece, directly involving more than 750 residences and 3000 citizens.
