Het Koninklijk Instituut Van Ingenieurs (KIVI) organiseerde op 12 november het Jaarcongres Stad in de Delta. Daarbij stond de toekomst van steden aan de kust centraal: hoe zorgen we ervoor dat deze steden droog, leefbaar, duurzaam, veilig en bereikbaar blijven? Een complexe vraag, waarbij slimme ICT-oplossingen een grote spelen. Niet vreemd dus dat CGI bij dit congres een presentatie mocht houden. Joris Knigge ging tijdens deze presentatie op de vraag waarom we nu al moeten ‘voorsorteren’ op de komst van nieuwe slimmere energienetwerken. Een van de redenen hiervoor is dat het elektriciteitsgebruik de komende jaren gaat stijgen, onder meer als gevolg van het grotere aanbod aan elektrische vervoermiddelen. Dat levert naast uitdagingen ook kansen op. Want hoe beter de balans tussen vraag en aanbod, des te betaalbaarder wordt energie. Een overschot aan zonne-energie rond het middaguur zou bijvoorbeeld heel goed geabsorbeerd kunnen worden door elektrische auto’s.

•Incorporation distributed renewable energy into existing infrastructure, maintaining affordability and reliability
•Facilitate new entrants and customer demands
•Manage uncertainties and avoid investment stranded assets
Total investment needs in the electricity and gas sector 2010-20: over 1 trillion EUR
Power generation ~ 500 bn
Distribution ~ 400 bn
Transmission ~ 200 bn
RES ~ 310 – 370 bn

7. The quest for flexibility
•Technical solutions to increase flexibility of the system
•Involve demand-side of the system to increase flexibility of the system
7

8. Involvement customer in energy chain can serve several business & societal goals
•Increase market power of customer
•Economic development in energy sector: new entrants, increase innovation, market liquidity
•Incorporation of intermittent renewable energy recourses requires flexibility – customer can provide flexibility in energy use
8

9. Customer participation & demand response
•Customer involvement in energy is very low (energy = commodity)
•Changing consumption pattern only occurs when changing determinants (values, attitudes, norms, morals, perceived control)
•Develop service which focusses on customers needs !

10. From delivering kWh towards supplying energy service
•Service development providing customers:
•Increased commitment
•Understandable insight in own consumption and production
•Real time feed back on behavioural effects
•Provide customer control and choice

11. Smart Meter
Real time production and consumption data is taken from the smart meter
11
Smart appliances
In home display and management system switches appliances on preferred times and moments: according to tariffs or solar panel production
Electric Vehicle Electric vehicles can be charged by own solar production
IT platform on district level CeMS
An IT platform supports monitoring and data communication from and to individual households, sensors substation capacity and interfaces with weather forecasts, wholesale markets and back-offices energy retailers
Solar panels
Solar panels produce electricity for households and feed into the network

14. Results
14
•Peak demand is reduced by ~40%, compared with average EU household profile
•91% of particpating households want more “control” on their energy consumption
•95% of participating households is convinced service “jouw energie moment” results in value for them
•~50% of participating households say they use their smart appliance more flexible – according to preferences

15. Next Steps??

16. CGI provided solution (CeMS) together with knowledge & expertise
•CGI designed, developed, realised and operates the IT data communication platform Central Energy Management System
•CGI delivered knowledge & expertise on workings of the market processes within the electricity sector
•CGI was responsible for system integration between various partners and suppliers to the consortium
•In home energy management systems
•Smart meter data systems
•Weather forecast services (Meteo Consult)
•Day Ahead electricity market (APX-ENDEX)
•Sensor- and monitoring on sub station of local distribution grid
•Billing & invoicing systems at back-offices of two competing energy retailers

17. Lessons Learned
17
•Development of products requires system integration – Important: protocols, open standards
•Involve customer at first phases of service product development
