Summary

This Technical Brochure addresses the technological challenges and economic consequences arising from the massive penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) at consumer’s side in power distribution grids. It provides an overview and recommendations on how to use existing and new types of information and telecommunication technologies to improve the integration of DERs by actively engaging them in energy flexibility markets. The presented materials also open up further horizons for the development of a digital platform approach for the technical and economic rationalization of solutions aimed at efficient and cost-effective integration of DERs.
