Establishing Mutually Beneficial Local Energy Markets (EMBLEM)

可再生能源产量的显著增长大多发生在可变技术(风能和太阳能光伏)中，这引发了人们对将大量可变发电整合到电力系统中的挑战的担忧。建立互惠互利的当地能源市场(EMBLEM)旨在测试为当地能源经济体建立开创性能源交易系统的可行性，旨在成为确保高效能源供应的具有成本效益的需求响应解决方案。这一概念对能源生产者、消费者(和消费者)以及国家电网和配电系统来说都是双赢的，旨在减少网络压力和停电。Emblem整合了英国的尖端创新-Scene Connect的Cloud Solar、离网能源计量和控制硬件以及Swanbarton的Smart Trading Platform-提供了一种超越当前最先进水平的产品。该产品有望通过提高小型可再生能源装置的生存能力以及电网的整合能力来扰乱当前的能源市场。这项技术的关键用途将是在发展中国家，那里的电网系统正在迅速扩张，承受着巨大的压力。

Most of the remarkable growth in renewable energy production has occurred among variable technologies (wind power and solar PV), raising concerns about the challenges of integrating large shares of variable generation into power systems. Establishing Mutually Beneficial Local Energy Markets (EMBLEM) aims to test the feasibility of a pioneering energy trading system for local energy economies, that aims to be a cost effective demand response solution to securing efficient energy supply. The concept is a win-win-win for producers, consumers (and prosumers) of energy, and also national grid and distribution systems, aiming to reduce network stress and power outages. EMBLEM integrates cutting-edge UK innovations - Scene Connect's Cloud Solar, off-grid energy metering and control hardware, and Swanbarton's Smart Trading platform - to deliver a product that goes beyond the current state-of-the-art. This product promises to disrupt current energy markets by increasing the viability of small renewable energy installations, and the electrical grid's ability to incorporate them. The key usage of the resultant technology will be in the developing world where grid systems are rapidly expanding and are under significant stress.
