Standard grids smart homes:final report
This report presents the results of the Standard Grids, Smart Homes (SGSH) project, running from 2015-2018. Apart from the Dutch partners Engie, Alliander, Technolution and TU/e, also Belgian distribution network operators Eandis and ORES participated. The objective of the project has been to develop a Home Energy Management System (HEMS) for use in households. This HEMS enables the local system to remain within specific limits of injecting or demanding from the grid. The SGSH HEMS measures the grid/consumption/injection, automatically controls some devices, takes into account flexible user requests and reports to the user the information required. If successful, this potentially can lead to great savings in investments in distribution networks. The HEMS has been tested in the ENGIE Laborelec laboratories, followed by a one year field study (summer 2017 - summer 2018) at the homes of 16 ‘friendly users’ in Belgium (11) and the Netherlands (5). All households had PV panels, 10 received a battery system, 5 used hybrid and full EVs and two households a heat pump. The social embedding of the HEMS has been investigated by regularly interviewing all 16 households and using surveys Insights were also derived from HEMS prosumer workshops, digital diaries, and aggregated HEMS data. For the business model study, a workshop has been organized. Also, all participants in the project have been interviewed twice. Finally, all results have been collected and are presented in this report.
