Webinar title: nZEB and Energy Flexibility

Author: Prof. João Martins

Abstract: This presentation addresses the issue of the energetic communities and they can correlate with the Distribution Systems Operator. Energetic communities is an emerging concept which can range from a block of households in a street all the way to an entire district. Their activities can be sorted into local generation and storage, demand response schemes, collective purchasing as well as energy exchange and trading. Demand side flexibility is an important asset that energetic communities can use to offer ancillary services to the grid.
This paper analyses the building and energetic community aggregated flexibility in order to provide flexibility services to the grid, proposing a methodology to compute the value of this flexibility.
