STRATEGY AND PLANS FOR VALIDATION IN ADDRESS

1. STRATEGY AND PLANS FOR VALIDATION IN ADDRESS ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOPACTIVE DEMAND: THE FUTURE OF ELECTRICITY Pieter Kropman, KEMA Paris, June 9th 2010 proof

2. Agenda • Objectives • Approach • Results • Next year plan ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

3. Main objectives of the Validations • • To check and validate the most promising solutions (prototypes) developed in ADDRESS • • To assess the project outcomes, quantify if, how and how well the ADDRESS objectives will have been met. • This might include a possible update and revision of the ADDRESS vision of active demand in electricity systems (initially defined in Deliverable D1.1) Show that the “ADDRESS solution”is suitable to: 1.Enable Active Demand 2.Bring value to the electricity system 3.Support the development of DG and RES 4.Significantly increase network load factor ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

4. Approach Get the fingers of both hands to fit into each other Field Test Platform: What do we have? Field Test Description: location, number of consumers, availableequipment/prototypes, etc. Test Objectives: What do we want? Validation Concept ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

5. The firstresults: Highlights • The most important achievement: Validation Concept • Other achievements are: • the criteria for test site selection • a first description of the field test in Spain, • The main steps/issues for the plan for the recruitment of the consumers • and also • an overview of the available equipment needed for the field tests (E-boxes, home-appliances and smart meters), • a description of experiences from partners with similar tests. ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

6. Validation Concept Objectives • The Validation Concept: • shows the concrete steps necessary to implement AD • describes what is going to be validated to “proof” the ADDRESS solution • describes which tests will be done in the different WP’s of the project • gives an overview of the validation methods used for the tests • is an input for the actual testplan (script = how to test, where, equipment needed, etc) ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

9. Validation Concept Verify compliance with requirements: 1. Completeness: three key concepts 2. Feasibility: technical implementation 3. Attractiveness: for participants 4. Value: for the system (society) ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

13. Criteria for Field test location selection • General criteria for Field Test selection: • Applicable to many places in Europe • Together overview of validation scope • Renewables • Different grid situations (scenario’s): urban, rural, geographic ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

14. Test 1: Iberdrola (LV-string) • Test 1 will be focussed on achieving AD from LV (domestic) consumers and their interaction with aggregators. • Main objective to check and validate: • Relationships and equipment at LV-Home level within the ADDRESS architecture: • Aggregator strategy and algorithms • the Energy box, smart meter and home equipment • interaction between (+ needed communication) • Social acceptance and commitment: • recruit and motivate consumers • assessing consumers behavior (incentives/ user interface) • NB: Tests 2 and 3 are currently being defined ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

15. Consumer recruitment & (de-) installation • Recruiting process: • Communication channel(s), motivation of the users • helpline / hotline • appointments with the users • entity in charge of the recruiting process • evaluation of the budget needed • Installation and de-installation process: • audit process: conformity of the user's installation, compatibility with tests • specification of the installation: contracts, training, certification of the installers • implementation of the technical installation • coordination between the technical installation and the user relationship management • organization of the de-installation ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP

16. Next year plan • Technical objectives/ results expected : • Deliver Testplan (Deliverable D6.1, public) : • Finalize validation concept • Description (vision) of field tests in Italy, France and Spain • Definition of the surveys to be conducted in the Field tests • Plan for recruitment of consumers • Plan for installation and de-installation process • Start-up with preparations for field tests and performing simulation validations ADDRESS INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP
