Designetz

Schaufenster: Designetz – Baukasten Energiewende – Von Einzellösungen zum effizienten System der Zukunft

Designetz is a project funded by the Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy. It is a demonstration project for the integration of renewable energies into the supply system within the framework of the funding programme "Shop Window Intelligent Energy - Digital Agenda for the Energy Turnaround (SINTEG)". Together with 46 other partners from public utilities, industry and science, the ie³ will, under the leadership of innogy SE, combine existing individual solutions for the integration of renewable energies through optimised market, network and system use as an overall solution for an energy supply system of the future. The Designetz showcase covers the federal states of North Rhine-Westphalia, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland and thus represents a representative model region from which statements for the whole of Germany can be derived.

Within the framework of this project, the ie³ has been commissioned to develop a so-called "system cockpit". This will coordinate the interaction of the different actors, so that a coordinated use of flexibility between market participants and the network, cascaded across different network levels, can be demonstrated. For this purpose, the participating demonstration projects will call up flexibilities, which will generate a corresponding service reference there and initiate associated communication processes. In addition, a simulation tool will be developed which will help to determine a cost-minimised demand and use of possible flexibility options from an overall system perspective.

Project duration: 01/2017 - 12/2020
