The FLEXGRID project develops a digital platform designed to offer Digital Energy Services (DESs) that facilitate energy sector stakeholders (i.e. DSOs, TSOs, market operators, RES producers, retailers, flexibility aggregators) towards: i) automating and optimizing their investments and operation/management of their systems/assets, and ii) interacting in a dynamic and efficient way with their environment (electricity system) and the rest of the stakeholders. In this way, FLEXGRID envisages secure, sustainable, competitive, and affordable smart grids. A key objective is the incentivization of large-scale bottom-up investments in Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) through innovative smart grid management. Towards this goal, FLEXGRID develops innovative data models and energy market architectures (with high liquidity and efficiency) that effectively manage smart grids through an advanced TSO-DSO interaction as well as interaction between Transmission Network and Distribution Network level energy markets. Consequently, and through intelligence that exploits the innovation of the proposed market architecture, FLEXGRID develops investment tools able to examine in depth the emerging energy ecosystem and allow in this way: i) the financial sustainability of DER investors, and ii) the market liquidity/efficiency through advanced exploitation of DERs and intelligent network upgrades.
FLEXGRID项目开发了一个数字平台，旨在提供数字能源服务（DES），以促进能源领域的利益相关者（即配电系统运营商、输电系统运营商、市场运营商、可再生能源生产商、零售商、灵活性聚合商）实现以下目标：i）自动化并优化其系统/资产的投资以及运营/管理；ii）以动态、高效的方式与环境（电力系统）及其他利益相关者进行互动。通过这种方式，FLEXGRID设想打造安全、可持续、有竞争力且价格合理的智能电网。一个关键目标是通过创新的智能电网管理，激励对分布式能源资源（DER）进行大规模的自下而上的投资。为实现这一目标，FLEXGRID开发创新的数据模型和能源市场架构（具有高流动性和效率），通过先进的输电系统运营商与配电系统运营商的互动以及输电网络和配电网络层面的能源市场之间的互动，有效地管理智能电网。因此，通过利用所提出的市场架构的创新的智能技术，FLEXGRID开发投资工具，能够深入研究新兴的能源生态系统，并以此实现：i）DER投资者的财务可持续性；ii）通过对DER的先进利用和智能网络升级实现市场流动性/效率。
