ea technology Partners in power asset management MicroCHeaP: Month 12 meeting Copenhagen WP4 Expert Group - Integration 29 September 2005 Presented by Yvonne Dickson
WP4: Co-ordination of European research activities • Expert Group on Integration • (e.g. system/grid/building integration) • Research projects added to the database • by EATL: • - UK national-scale projects 8 • - other European-scale projects 2
UK national-scale projects - III • 101/08/2005 - 31/10/2005 kathryn.newall@dti.gsi.gov.uk • - to assess potential of microgeneration to 2050 • - includes small CHP (renewable and non-renewable) • - also solar/PV, wind, small hydro, heat pumps, bio-energy, fuel cells • - below 50/100kW output for each installation • 2 TARBASE 15/07/2005 - 15/07/2009 li.shao@nottingham.ac.uk • Focused on: • - greater use of CHP in buildings • - improved insulation • - use of building-integrated renewable energy • Will assess effectiveness of a range of technologies
UK national-scale projects – IV Distributed Generation Co-ordinating Group • 3 SIAM 01/04/2004 - 30/09/2004 marketing@mottmac.com • Analysis of costs and benefits of integrating significant amounts of microgeneration on low voltage electricity networks • 4/5/6 01/01/2002 - 31/01/2005 geoff.scrivener@aeat.co.uk • Delivering solutions to immediate challenges that distributed generation presents to electricity networks • Working on connection of microgeneration to electricity networks • - aims to remove main regulatory/institutional barriers • Working on long-term impact of distributed generation on electricity networks
UK national-scale projects - V • 7 01/01/2002 - 31/01/2005 geoff.scrivener@aeat.co.uk • Continuing Workstream 4 focus to take advantage of emerging small-scale generation technology • 8 01/10/2003 - 31/03/2007 info@thecarbontrust.co.uk • Objectives • - to install small CHP (~150 units) in real sites • - to obtain independent data about performance of small CHP • - to provide information on small-CHP technologies • - to accelerate take-up of small-scale CHP technology
Other European-scale projects • E1 GENDIS01/03/2005 - 28/02/2005 mark@chalex.com • Focused on needs of SMEs in the domestic power sector • Objectives include: • - to map current distributed generators in Europe • - to determine size of potential market • - identify legislative obstacles to greater uptake • - to assess impact on networks in Denmark, Italy, UK • E2 DESIREcontracted UK contact: dtuke@bham.ac.uk • EU research contract delivered July 2005 • Demonstrating how CHP can solve intermittency problems of fluctuating renewable energy schemes
