Abstract:
Research on empowering energy citizens is carrying out by introducing the ideas of smart buildings, smart energy communities, smart cities, etc. to achieve the target of decarbonizing the smart grid network. Hence, for better operation and management, consumers/prosumers with multiple distributed energy resources in the distribution network can be coordinated to form an integrated energy system (IES) solutions, for example, microgrids, local energy networks and virtual power plants (VPPs), etc. Local consumers/prosumers and communities can be engaged with these solutions to empower energy citizens or uplift smart energy communities to become “zero net energy” or “energy plus” communities. Series of lectures will be presented on this topic. This lecture will provide some basic information on microgrids and VPPs.
