Περίληψη της ομιλίας
"The transformation of the electricity sector And The role of intelligent distributed generation & storage". With the rapid growth of distributed generation and storage, electricity customers have many options allowing them to become more proactive in the market. As they gradually migrate away from the historical norms, four more-or-less distinct types of “customers” can be envisaged:
· Consumers who continue to buy all power from the distribution network at regulated bundled tariffs;
· Prosumers who invest in distributed generation resources, reducing or eliminating their net electricity purchases from the network;
· Prosumagers who make additional investments in distributed storage, including electric vehicles (EVs), to store excess generation for use at later times; and
· More “exotic” and empowered customer types, such as those who engage in peer-to-peer (P2P) trading and/or sharing of energy generation and consumption imbalances using platforms or enabled by aggregators or intelligent intermediaries.
This presentation describes the stratification of customers into these types of customers and their impacts on incumbents as well as disruptive new service providers. Specifically, the speaker will:
- Explore the impacts of increasing distributed generation and storage;
- Examine the explosion of new services and service providers and their impact on the existing grid and incumbent utilities; and
- Discuss future market trends and emerging business and service models.
