1 Smart Buildings for a Policy and Practice Demand response in blocks of buildings: the DR BOB project Dr Vladimir Vukovic Malta February 14, 2017 Vukovic, V., Demand response in blocks of buildings: the DR BOB project, Smart buildings for a Policy and Practice, Energy Concerted Action workshop,.

2 Demand Response in Blocks of Buildings EU H2020 funded Innovation project Mar 2016 Feb partners, 5 EU countries, 4 demos Smart buildings for a Teesside University, UK, Project Coordinator Centre Scientifique et Technique du Bâtiment, France Siemens Energy Management Division, UK R2M Solution, Italy NOBATEK, France Grid Pocket SAS, France Duneworks BV, Netherlands Fondazione Poliambulanza, Italy Servelect, Romania March 3, 2016 / Teesside University Universitatea Tehnică din Cluj-Napoca, Romania 2

3 Smart buildings for a Aim of DR BOB u To demonstrate the economic & environmental benefits of demand response in blocks of buildings for the actors required to bring it to market u These actors include but are not restricted to u Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) u Energy Retailers u Transmission Service Operators (TSOs) u Energy Service Companies (ESCOs) u IT providers u Aggregators u Facilities owners & managers 3

4 Smart buildings for a What is demand response? u Demand Response involves consumers shifting or reducing their electricity usage during peak periods in response to time-based tariffs & other financial incentives 4

5 Smart buildings for a Types of demand response Implicit u Time-varying electricity prices or grid tariffs that reflect the value & cost of electricity and/ or transportation Explicit u Direct payments to change consumption/demand or generation/supply patterns upon request 5

6 Smart buildings for a Demand Response in EPBD update u Proposal for EPBD update COM(2016) 765 u introduces a smartness indicator to assess the technological readiness of the building to interact with their occupants and the grid and to manage themselves efficiently u The smartness indicator shall cover flexibility features, enhanced functionalities and capabilities resulting from more interconnected and built-in intelligent devices being integrated into the conventional technical building systems. The features shall enhance the ability of occupants and the building itself to react to comfort or operational requirements, take part in demand response and contribute to the optimum, smooth and safe operation of the various energy systems and district infrastructures to which the building is connected. 6

7 Smart buildings for a How can DR BOB contribute to EPBD update? u DR BOB will u Provide and validate a method of assessing at least 3 levels of technology readiness (1-no capability, 2-some capability, 3-full capability) related to the technologies required for consumers facilities managers, buildings and the local energy infrastructure to participate in the Demand Response Energy Management solution at any given site. u 7

8 DR BOB Architecture Smart buildings for a u u u Defined system architecture and technologies u A scalable cloud based central management system u Local real-time energy management solution Defined demonstration scenarios and use cases First draft business models 8
