New Energy Business Models in the Distribution Grid
The goals of NEMoGrid are:
To design and evaluate new business models favouring the grid-integration of decentralized energy resources
To encourage the active participation of citizens and the assumption of their new role of prosumers
To test the models in simulation and validate them in three pilot projects across Europe
Three Scenarios
To design and evaluate new business models we investigate:
Centralized utility management
Decentralized voltage/power based tariffs
Peer-to-peer market based on the Ethereum blockchain for energy transactions
Three Demo Sites
To evaluate our business models we venture out in:
Rolle, Switzerland
Björklinge, Sweden
Wüstenrot, Germany
Work Packages
The NEMoGrid project is organized within seven work packges, five of them contain research work on: The definition of future scenarios (WP 1), the design of market and tariff models (WP 2), the modelling framework (WP 3), the social acceptance of different market models (WP 4), and the scalability and replicability in the three different test sites (WP 5). The respective NEMoGrid partners who lead the work package are displayed in the figure on the left.
