Der zunehmende Anteil erneuerbarer Energien und die damit verbundene Notwendigkeit, Energieerzeugung den Energieverbrauch an Verfügbarkeit von Energie anzupassen, erfordern neue Konzepte zur energieflexiblen Steuerung industrieller Produktionsanlagen. In diesem Beitrag wird am Beispiel einer Abwasseraufbereitungsanlage demonstriert, wie das Potenzial Massespeichern Steigerung der Energieflexibilität in industriellen Prozessen, insbesondere durch Anwendung optimierter Betriebsplanung...
Addressing the trends of digitalization, decentralization, democratization, and decarbonization, local peer-to-peer (P2P) markets have potential to significantly accelerate decarbonization at communal level. However, due an increase in number energy consumers, such as electric vehicles or heat pumps, grid congestion can occur since actual low-voltage grids are not designed transmit large loads. This paper introduces a novel concept for platform combine advantages P2P trading with need...
The current transformation process of how energy is supplied attracts great interest from many different market players.As a consequence, proprietary solutions for "smart" applications are flooding the market.This turns out to be rather problem than part solution systematic development future grids.Additionally, absence necessary standards blocks further developments that enable creation novel, market-driven and hybrid control solutions.To overcome these problems, we suggest standardized...
Models of the operational energy system analysis map partial aspects in high temporal and spatial resolution. In this contribution different power grid focused scenarios are considered results from four models compared for an exemplary, rural low voltage grid. These include expansion photovoltaic (PV) generation measures to address resulting limit violations with conventional installation a regulating distribution transformer (VRDT). The model comparison should provide optimization...
The objective of service-oriented computing (SOC) is to construct software applications out appropriate services available and executing in place anywhere across the Web. To achieve this requires that techniques for discovering engag
A sustainable and climate-friendly energy supply needs flexible efficient distribution systems. Key factors to implement this kind of systems are intelligent coordination (smart grid approaches) the integration different sectors. This article introduces unified agent as an agent-based approach for a comprehensive modelling control conversion enables both simulation optimization coupled networks, then in next step, development corresponding smart solutions be applied field. Its applicability...
To control the high amount of decentral generation and consumption, decentralized energy approaches are necessary to handle computational power restrictions, robustness requirements provide scalability. For this, structures like microgrids under development, where systems can be controlled decentrally, using decen-tral optimization algorithms. Here, algo-rithms classified into cooperative competitive algorithms that - for each individual benefits. compare as well tertiary frequency, paper...
Redefining our energy landscape by means of regenerative, volatile and decentralized organized systems represents a major challenge for the creation distributed control solutions.Standards are required that permit describing variety conversion enable an interoperable exchange amounts in open, flexible manner concurrently taking into account technical market requirements.This paper introduces concept unifying Energy Agents.They have potential to reduce ever growing complexity comes along with...
The conversion of our energy supply systems is practically just at the beginning. Technically distributed, hybrid and individual producer consumer have to be coupled form small(er) smart markets. Thus, it can expected that interactions dependencies between technical economical will increase. A sound understanding limits in interaction grids markets a key point for further development grids. This paper argues agents, multi-agent system agent based simulations are promising approach deal with...
The energy transition necessitates a variety of control solutions to integrate renewables-based generation and unlock demand-side flexibility. To contribute solving this challenge, the authors built toolchain for developing smart grid solutions. This consists methodological, conceptual technological components. In contribution, we detail way in which facilitates continuous utilization software artifacts across simulations, testbeds deployment. capability has potential significantly reduce...
The increasing share of renewable energy sources and necessitate new concepts for flexible operation industrial production resources. In this paper, we demonstrate the potential mass storage to increase flexibility in operations through application optimized operational planning based on market prices. A wastewater treatment plant equipped with decanters storages is examined optimally utilize its energy-flexibility. An MILP model was created energy-flexible facilities. resulting plan...
Due to a high penetration by renewables and strong trend towards decentralization, future energy grids exhibit an increasingly emergent behavior. As consequence new engineering approaches, based on decentralized decision making, have been proposed. The Agent.HyGrid project provides framework for the design, development testing of infrastructures. However, in contrast other approaches it allows designer consider all kinds energy, not only electrical power but also, e.g., gas or heat. It was...
