Peer-to-Peer Trading of Electricity: Using EVs to Enable Electrified Heat

该项目旨在评估当地热电能源市场（LEM）的效率和程度，以提供灵活性和获得存储的手段，以支持电气化热的部署。以前的工作表明，电动汽车作为LEM内的储能载体提供了特殊的潜力，因此在这里，我们将重点关注它们在LEM内的能力，通过管理LEM内的需求和本地网络来开发支持电气化热部署所必需的灵活性。此外，还将对作为此类系统做市商的公司的商业模式进行评估，从而量化此类系统对其所有者的价值（认识到与Heat-As-A-Service的相似性）。该项目将使用基于代理的AnyLogic软件（用于EnergyLogic）：-开发LEM内同时进行热和电力拍卖的模型。-将LEM模型与本地配电网的代表相连接，以调查LEM及其所有者为DNO提供的灵活性的潜在价值。调查一系列技术方案（例如，完整的ASHP，社区GSHP环路，可再生能源/电动汽车渗透率）。分析中央做市商的最佳商业模式，考虑潜在的关税结构，其他可访问的价值流（DNO支持）和模型可扩展性，即街道或支线规模。

This project seeks to assess the efficacy and degree to which local energy markets (LEMs) of heat and electricity are a means for delivering flexibility and access to storage to support the deployment of electrified heat. Previous work has indicated that EVs provide particular potential as an energy storage vector within a LEM, thus here we will focus on their ability within a LEM to develop the flexibility that's necessary to support electrified heat deployment by both managing demand within the LEM and with the local network. An assessment will also be made of the business model for the company acting as market maker of such a system, and therefore quantifying the value of such a system to its owner (being cognisant of the similarity to Heat-As-A-Service).This project will use the agent-based AnyLogic software (that used for EnergyLogic) to:- Develop a model simultaneous for heat and power auctioning within a LEM.- Connect the LEM model with a representation of the local distribution net to investigate the potential value for the LEM, and its owner, for the flexibility offered to the DNO.- Investigate a range of technology scenarios (e.g. full ASHP, community GSHP loop, renewable/EV penetration).- Analyse the optimal business model for the central market maker considering potential tariff structures, other accessible value streams (DNO support), and the model scalability, i.e. at street or feeder scale.
