DESIRE (Domestic Energy Storage Integrating Renewable Energy)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The DESIRE project will explore supply chains that integrate grid demand response services with domestic hotwater and battery storage. If successful, the project will open up new supply chains and income streams formarkets that can underpin the intergation of large-scale intermittent energy into the grid. Upside Energy hasdeveloped a novel, cloud-based, demand response platform which will choreograph a fleet of Mixergy tanksand Powervault home battery systems over the course of the trial. Mixergy have developed a range ofinnovative electric hot water tanks that have intelligent controls and sensing, so enabling them to communicatewith Upside's platform. Powervault's award winning home battery system will enable Upside to provide abidirectional energy storage service. The objectives of the trial will be: to understand how systemic value fromdistributed energy storage can incentivise stakeholders to install intelligent tanks & batteries; to quantify thetrue multi-vector energy storage potential that exists within households; to assess consumer responses; todevelop optimal control strategies for integrated battery / hot water tank systems & identify optimum supply
