Nov. 20, 2023, 2:04 p.m. Updated 35 {"title": ["", "Ebbs and Flows of Energy Systems (EFES)"], "description": ["", "\nThis project builds upon the Ebbs and Flows of Energy Systems feasibility study (31737-230167) and demonstrates the\ndevelopment, impact and business potential of a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) integrating; building energy management,\nrenewable electricity generation, electric vehicles and battery storage systems. The project will manage the electricity use\nof a range of sites, from single properties through to large commercial premises. The proposed management system uses\nalgorithm based predictive control to enable and optimise the active utilisation of multiple electric vehicle and domestic\nstorage batteries as an energy storage and generation resource. The project will demonstrate VPP functionality,\naggregating the disparate energy distributed energy resources to provide wider network ancillary support services, such as\npeak shaving. This will reduce variability in electricity demand levels, cost and CO2 emissions, plus improve the UK grid\nsecurity of supply.\nEnergy storage is one of the eight great technologies identified by the government to propel the UK to future growth (David\nWilletts MP, Policy Exchange, 2013). The RCUK Review of Energy in 2010 highlights that R&D into energy storage has the\npotential to yield high levels of decarbonisation beyond 2030. The TSB (Energy Supply Strategy, 2012) states that battery\nrelated R&D within the energy and transport sectors is a UK priority that will benefit from public investment.\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\nPotential Impact:\nWe have a project management structure to allow all investigators to pursue the most promising lines of research to\nmaximise impact. There are four important aspects to dissemination: the academic community, the distribution utilities, EV\nmanufacturers and the policy makers.\nThe research challenges are such that publication of results in international IET and IEEE conferences (such as the IEEE\nPower Soc. General Meeting, CIRED and CIGRE), and ultimately in learned journals.\nTwo workshops will be organised by Cardiff University to publicise the emerging results of this consortium's work and to\ndiscuss technical issues. The advisory companies will be closely involved in the progress of the work through project\nmeetings. The involvement of car manufacturer, DNOs and utility companies in the Advisory Board means a logical route to\nexploitation exists.\nConsortium members are already engaging with industry, government and end users through existing projects, and been\ninvolved in organising and a diverse range of impact routes through working with regional and national governments,\ncommercial and not-for-profit organisations and advising on the setting of energy standards and regulations. This network\nof engagements will continue and expand for informing the policy makers and industry about the findings and effective\nknowledge exchange will be achieved. Prof. Nick Jenkins is directly involved with the Ofgem / DECC group on Smart Grids.\nConsortium members have established formal and informal links with international collaborators in Europe and USA, and\nopportunities for new connections are presented by COST Action "Autonomic Road Transport Support Systems."\nOur project will be specifically developing demonstration case studies showing how EVs will impact the electricity systems,\nwhich should be of great relevance to DNO. Contributions will continue to be made through Grid Code and Engineering\nRecommendations revisions in the UK, and also through technology evaluation and demonstration.\nEngagement in DECC/OFGEM Smart Grids Forum, Low Carbon Network Fund bids, Innovation Funding Incentive projects,\nand the Energy Technologies Institute infrastructure programme, all provide the academics with pathways to impact. The\nfocus on tangible technological outputs, together with the informing context of case studies, provides a strong delivery\nmechanism for communicating emerging technology options.\nThis project contributes to more cost effective integration of EVs and renewables along with reduction of CO2 emissions\nand thus will benefit society at large.\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Closed"]}
