Principles of Energy Flexible Buildings:Energy in Buildings and Communities Programme Annex 67 Energy Flexible Buildings
Energy flexibility of a building is really not a new concept. It originates from the demand side management regime, which for decades has been applied by the designers and operators to foster stable and bottleneck-free operation of the electrical energy systems. However, as the transition of both the demand and supply side of the energy system imposes new challenges to the management of the whole energy system, such as the variability and limited control of energy supply from renewables or the increasing load variations over the day, the energy Flexible Building concept has gained more international attention. However, despite the given attention, a uniform understanding and a commonly accepted definition is still not in place for this building concept. The lack of a clear international framework for the requirements and properties of energy Flexible Buildings leads to numerous definitions that are being developed in parallel and are applied to specific cases when evaluating and/or quantifying energy flexibility. Although the concept of energy flexibility of buildings is relatively simple to understand, its application in reality can be complex and difficult to explain in simple terms. This complexity is not helped by the myriad of ways in which energy flexibility can be achieved or the wide range of stakeholders involved; especially when many stakeholders have very little understanding, or interest, in the supply and demand of energy in buildings. There was, thus, a need for increasing knowledge on, and demonstration of, which services energy flexibility buildings can provide to the energy networks. At the same time, there was a need for identifying critical aspects and possible solutions to manage this energy flexibility, while maintaining the comfort of the occupants and minimizing the use of non-renewable energy. Based on the above the Executive Committee of the IEA Technical Collaboration Programme (TCP) Energy in Buildings and Communities (EBC) decided to initiate Annex 67 Energy Flexible Buildings in June ...
