2. The project ADDRESS A large-scale, EU 7° Framework Programme, Integrating Project To enable the active participation of domestic & small commercial consumers to the power system markets and the provision of services to the different participants • started on June 1st 2008 • lasts 4 years (2008 – 2012) • total budget 16 M€, EC financing 9M€ • ENEL DISTRIBUZIONE is the COORDINATOR • CONSORTIUM of 25 partners from 11 European countries The ADDRESS project

3. Experience Knowledge Competence The Consortium Manifacturers Research and • A multidisciplinary group including: • Research centres • Distribution and Transmission Operators • Energy supply and retail companies • Electric equipment manufacturers • Home appliances and white goods manufacturers • Communication equipment and ICT solutions providers 30% universities 40% Utilities 30% The ADDRESS project

4. Develop technical solutions for consumers premises & for the power system Propose recommendations and solutions to remove the possible barriers Identify the potential benefits for the stakeholders Develop appropriate markets and contractual mechanisms Study of accompanying measures to deal with societal, cultural, behavioural aspects Validate most promising solution in 3 complementary test sites Conduct dedicateddissemination activities for the stakeholders The Objectives ENABLE ACTIVE DEMAND EXPLOIT THE BENEFITS VALIDATE THE RESEARCH DISSEMINATE THE RESULTS The ADDRESS project

5. Methodology • 8 Work Packages • Project management • Dissemination • 6 “technical” WPs • Organised to support the • methodology adopted for • development • validation and • deployment • of the concepts and • solutions. The ADDRESS project

6. Main concepts Interaction based on real-time price and volumesignals • real-time = 20 to 30 min ahead or longer • modulated by geographical / topological information • direct load control by DSO will be not considered “Demand” approach • services provided on a voluntary and contractual basis • appropriate technologies and request for consumers • accompanying measures for societal and behavioural aspects The ADDRESS project

7. ADDRESS Architecture (1/3) • Consumers: • optimisation and control of appliances and DER at consumers’ premises • Energy Box is the interface with the aggregator DSO MARKETS AND CONTRACTS AGGREGATOR • Aggregator: • mediator between the consumers and the markets • collects requests and signals from markets and participants • gathers flexibilities & contributions of consumers • different levels of optimisation to meet the requirements of topologically dependent services Different levels of optimization and aggregation ADDRESS adaptation MV – LV transfos Energy Supply and provision of services ADDRESS link adaptation Sub station DG & RES DMS Retailer Trader BALANCING RESPONSIBLE PARTY TSO Centralized Generation The ADDRESS project
