KLIEN-EDRC - European Demand Response Center

This project focuses on research and development of an automated European Demand Response Centre (EDRC) through aggregation and intelligent networking of industrial and commercial consumers and suppliers with integration of renewable energy sources (RES) for economical and ecological optimization of balance energy actions, such as peak power, grid stability and congestion issues. Results of this project will be a functional research of EDRC in a laboratory environment which integrates five industry/commercial sites (LOIs attached) in order to achieve best possible knowledge of demand response technology potential (technical, commercial) and its effects on the energy system as well as the technological challenges for the realization of such a system.
