Technologies and Concepts for the Next-Generation Integrated Energy Services

In recent years, as part of the European Union's initiatives to help combat climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the Citizen Energy Communities (CEC) concept was promoted with a primary objective to enhance the self-consumption of locally produced renewable energy. The integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) requires the orchestration of tools and services on edge and cloud levels. This paper describes an approach to establish and validate an SGAM-compliant software platform with deployed data-driven services for holistic control and energy dispatch optimization. The developed by and deployed at the Institute Mihajlo Pupin (IMP) platform has been tested for a CEC from Spain in the NEON project framework. As part of the future work, additional short-, mid-, and long-term planning services will be integrated and tested using data from the IMP campus.
