Abstract

The energy transition confronts utilities with major challenges due to the decentralised and volatile feed-in of renewable energies. As part of the Cloud|E research project, an intelligent cloud-based energy management system (EMS) is being developed in which flexibility options are made available to the utilities by connecting components for power generation, storage and large loads that are found in private households. The potential of this system is analysed in this paper using a simulation scenario. The individual components for generating flexibilities are considered separately. The flexibility potential is presented in the form of additional revenue opportunities on the part of the utilities. It is shown that each flexibly controlled component leads to an additional profit for the utility. By varying the framework conditions in a wide-ranging scenario analysis, the robustness of the system is proven. The results demonstrate the possibility of flexibility generation in the area of electromobility. In total, the potential of a decentralised cloud-based EMS to support the utilities in times of the energy transition can be confirmed.
