Activity 3.4 Methodology development for VPP business cases
This activity should have been finalized last year, but since we had some delay setting up the show cases the deliverable for this task will be written during activity 3.5. A meeting will be set up with, at least, RGU, VITO and Hamburg, where we discuss our approach to VPP’s. This will lead to a deliverable where each of these partners contribute. The deliverable will be put on the website, so we comply with all indicators set for the activity.
Description in application form: Develop innovative methodology VPP & business case. In VPP generation, transport, storage and consumption are reflected. The energy network concept will consist of a technical lay-out and a proper business case.
Running time: Yesterday
Responsible benificiary: Hamburg
Partners contributing: VITO, RGU
Output:
- 1 own meeting
- 1 published material
Status: Ready
Deliverable: Report ”Strategies and Business Cases for Smart Energy Networks FINAL sept-2012”.

Activity 3.5 Application of smart energy networks (VPP’s)
Responsible benificiary WP3.5 / VITOPartners involved / VITO, Port of Antwerp, Hamburg, Zaanstad, RGU
Running time / September 2011 – June 2013
1: Introduction
Workpage 3.5 implies the development and demonstration of smart energy networks applications. One strand of WP3.5 implies the determination of the technical and economic feasability of virtual power plant applications at the port of Antwerp, Hamburg, and Orkney. The second strand implies the development of a real smart grid demonstration project at the municipality of Zaanstad.
· Vito and Hamburg focus on the determination of demand side flexibility at several companies at the ports of Hamburg and Antwerp, and examine the potential business cases using technical and economic simulations. The simulations will also be performed by integration with renewables i.e. wind and solar energy.
· Zaanstad focuses on the development and demonstration of a real smart grid application using a combination of electric mobilty and renewable energy sources i.e. solar and wind energy.
· RGU: focuses on monitoring and modeling of a smart grid applications at the port of Orkney….characterized by its location, and large amount of wind energy. RGU will provide the necessary benchmark parameters for all show cases involved …..David please comment, and/or add some text
2: Status show cases Q1 2013
Vito
Has finalised there first part of the show cases, that is the execution of the local demand side flexibility audits on 5 companies at the port of Antwerp. Five confidential reports are delivered, and a summary report ” WP 3.5 Application of Smart Energy Networks - part I – Final.pdf ”. Meetings with stakeholders are planned in Q2.
Next and final part of the show case is to analyse business cases on a cluster level and based on the universal business cases as defined in report ”Strategies and Business Cases for Smart Energy Networks FINAL sept-2012”. Spin off: Development cold store model, and a batch oriented model.
Activities Q1/2:
- Determination of business cases other than the local business cases analyzed so far.
- Start the activities on reefers (in close cooperation with HAW) as a new opportunity for demand side flexibility.
Zaanstad
The smart grid application named ReloadIT, developed by a private company EnergyGO, has been commisioned by municipality Zaanstad. Zaanstad svp wat aan toevoegen......

Activity 3.6 Review and improvement VPP energy concepts and methodology
In this task the results of task 3.5 and 3.7 will be combined into a techno-economic analysis. This techno-economic analysis of the different showcases will be presented to the E-platform. The comments from the E-platform will be gathered in a document and each of the partners receiving comments will describe the actions taken / changes made to the showcases in the document. The updated documents on the different showcases will be taken to the local stakeholders in task 3.8.
Description in application form: Review approach VPP by E-platform of energy concepts and improved on the basis of their comments

Activity 3.7 Finalization Business cases VPP
Since activity 3.5 already contains the economic calculations for the showcases, 3.7 is focused on the organizational and legislative aspects of VPP’s. A long list of barriers has already been composed , we need to look at the local stakeholders and help them find a way to organize a VPP in their country within the possibilities that the local legislation offers them. If the possibilities are too limited to set up a VPP, a list of suggestions for policies that enable VPP’s should be composed.
If this group works in parallel to activity 3.5. the results of the discussions applied to the different showcases can be presented at the meeting with the E-platform at Antwerp.
(tijdens de vergadering in Malmo is afgesproken dat meer partners die een show case ontwikkelen, een soortgelijke evaluatie uitvoeren, en dat de bevindingen gecombineerd gaan worden).
Description in application form: Finalization business case VPP: Evaluation/definition of economic value; organization structure of VPP with definition roles stakeholders (industrial end-users, energy suppliers, grid operators, local authorities, aggregators). Incl. general recommendations for transnational application(supported by G. Buist. The analysis will be made by each responsible partner per country and guided by the E-platform.

Activity 3.8 Review and evaluation show cases by local stakeholders
After a first discussion with the local stakeholders (Activity 3.5), a review from our expert panel (Activity 3.6), we return to the local stakeholders with our results. This gives them the opportunity to evaluate our work, which we can use to gather the last recommendations for the e-harbours project. Articles on the evaluations should be presented on the website.
If possible the WP-Leader will chair the meetings with the partners and local stakeholders and should thus be invited to the 3.8 meetings.
Description in application form: Review of the approach by local stakeholder. The results of the organizational structure of the VPP will be evaluated by the local involved stakeholder. In each country participating in the show cases a meeting with the local stakeholder will be organized by the local partner responsible for the case.
