Goals for today▪To run through specific building blocks in theblueprint▪ Business model development▪ Data models▪ Organisational form and governance authority▪To see these blocks in (simulated) practice▪ What value do they provide?
▪ Do they solve real-world problems?

▪The co-creation method in action

The easy questions for the audience▪Who here has solar panels on their roof?
▪Who here owns or leases an electric car?
Those who answered yes will be interested in thisunfolding drama and already know enough toparticipate
If you said no, it’s still intuitive and interesting!

What kind of data space is it?
▪For this exercise, we take as a given▪ We have a clear set of data products▪ We have a specific use case around which to build
the data space▪We have four mainstakeholders▪ A fuller description

Co-creation: steps for preparatory stage▪Five complementary processes:
1. Align Stakeholders on the Data Space Scope
2. Develop Use Cases and Identify FunctionalRequirements
3. Establish Organisational Form
4. Functional Analysis and Data Space Design
5. Establish Data Space Agreements and Policies

The basics of the scenario▪The EU wants to create common data spaces
for energy▪Our specific use case is energy flexibility

Energy flexibility▪The wind blows; the sun shines▪ But not consistently▪Batteries store energy, flattening ebb and flow
▪ But where to get them at scale?
▪ Electric cars!

▪Your new lingo for the day?
▪ V2G: vehicle-to-grid technology

How the flexibility works▪Consumers can choose to provide theirbatteries for use in the grid
▪ Energy providers and distributors need toknow when consumers make their batteries
available▪ They need to know their characteristics▪ Size, charge levels, location▪ Also need mechanisms to pay for this usage▪ Personal data

What data is required for our scenario?
TYPE

DESCRIPTIONMETERING

How much energy is a device consuming.

DEVICE

What are the characteristics of the devices on the network, such as thecharge level of a battery and its capacity.

PRICING

What is the price charged for the energy.

PERSONAL

If car owners will be compensated when their car batteries are used, theyneed to be compensated, and as such, identifiable.

Those unrepresented people?
▪Data space intermediaries▪European and Member Statepolicymakers▪ Energy is a highly regulated sector▪ If the actors cannot find a reason to cooperate, do policymakers step in?

▪Speaking of stepping in…
▪ Who is leading this?

Collaborative Business Modelling▪ Provide the business model radarfor the application of the data space▪ Meaning the process for which you
have created the value network▪ Use the same actors as in the value
network

Steps…
1. Move from the centre, where the‘co-created value’ is described
2. Then define the actor’s

Value Network Figure▪ Provide a Value Network figure, in which
the actors in the example which you findmost relevant are displayed.
▪ Additionally insert lines on the value
creation in the physical world (actualmovement of goods) and the value creation
on data and services.

Example of use cases based on the St. Gallen University
