Objectives - Develop and Verify

Develop a new market design for local trading and involvement of the consumer/prosumer

Develop prosumer oriented business models relevant for the market design developed

Develop an ICT based monitoring and management system accommodated in the SESP

Develop full bidirectional and secure communication between the market and business

Integrate the different parts and demonstrate the viability of the concept in up to 3 physical regions in Europe (Norway, Germany and Malta)

• a local market place.• innovative business models• operational methods to encourage micro-generation• operational methods for active participation of prosumers• operational methods for exploiting the flexibility created for the benefit of all

connected to the local grid

3


Demonstrate active demand response in real world environments in commercial operation with active involvement of consumers, aggregators, ESCOs, based on new business models.

Expected impact

• Integrating the results into smart grid test beds in Germany, Malta and Norway.

• Pilots will include DR programs to test user flexibility integrated with local micro-production

• The micro-market approach is meant to secure those and to manifest a proper credit assignment where contributions will be properly and timely honoured.
