📋 Tender Overview
Interoperable Cloud-Based Solution For Cross-Vector Planning And Management Of Positive Energy Districts
Scalable Cloud-Based Platform For Positive Energy Districts Managementpositive Energy Districts (Peds) Refer To Urban Areas Comprising Interconnected Buildings That Achieve Net Zero Greenhouse Gas Emissions, While Actively Managing Renewable Energy. The Eu-Funded Interped Project Aims To Bolster Peds By Integrating Renewable Energy Sources, Storage, And Waste Heat To Enhance Their Efficiency And Grid Stability. The Project Will Deliver A Scalable, Cloud-Based Platform Equipped With Analytical, Modelling, And Optimisation Services Tailored For Integrated Peds, Encompassing Power, Heating, Cooling, And Mobility Systems. Additionally, Interped Will Foster Consumer Engagement Through Community-Building Initiatives, Facilitating A Collaborative Demand Response Strategy. Consumers And Service Providers Will Be Involved In Co-Designing Solutions Through Participatory Approaches. The Project’S Technical And Commercial Feasibility Will Be Validated Through Four Large-Scale Pilots.

Objective
InterPED aims to enable the concept of PEDs via sector coupling, cross-vector integration, demand flexibility and consumer engagement, while improving utilisation of local RES, storage and excess/waste heat (E/WH) sources. InterPED will couple RES, storage and E/WH sources (community assets) available in the pilots with the necessary know-how and ICT expertise to ensure improved operation of PEDs and grid robustness. This will allow InterPED’s end users (aggregators, service providers, urban planners) to deliver benefits to both, grid stakeholders (DSO/TSOs) and final consumers (and prosumers). To do so, InterPED will deliver a scalable and adaptable cloud-based platform composed of analytical, modelling and optimization services for planning, supervision and control of integrated PEDs (including power, heating and cooling, mobility). Optimized PED operations will be demonstrated at pilot sites, while enabling a cooperative demand response (DR) strategy at community/district level. In addition to automated control actions, InterPED intends to engage the consumers via community building (e.g. CECs or RECs), representing a still largely untapped source of flexibility, while enabling them to play an active role in grid balancing. By making it cloud-based and by ensuring system interoperability (both syntactic and semantic), InterPED will enable aggregators and actors positioned to adopt proposed business model (e.g. ESCOs, energy retailers, DSOs) to deploy the InterPED solution immediately almost anywhere, while reducing the cost to its scalability. The key strategy to ensure solutions will work well in an everyday context of consumers, is that InterPED will involve
