Research into the application of Internet-of-Things technology and the development of regulation models using various devices, including domestic batteries and electric vehicles, and their implementation in the prototype of the Asseco Demand Side Management (ADSM) system for regulating a wide range of domain systems
The aim of the project is to conduct research leading to the development of a prototype of a new class of DSM system to manage the demand side in the energy sector. The project will examine the efficiency of the power control of reception devices, which communicate through the use of Internet-of-Things technology. The research will focus on the development of new methods of influencing power consumption, which will ensure the highest efficiency of the process, while maintaining the continuity of business processes (e.g. the use of temperature retention in industrial refrigeration systems). The project will examine methods of gratification of regulatory participants, which will ensure the highest efficiency of the process and, at the same time, as much flexibility as possible by attracting new partners and increasing the volume of regulation. In addition, the project will include research on smart metering systems to measure, collect and analyse energy consumption. The prototype of the system will be prepared to communicate with receiving devices located in places with AMI counters installed. The communication will be done using the ZigBee protocol. The implemented prototype of the Asseco DSM system will ensure efficient network management through the process of regulating demand through, among others, the ability to control the power of HVAC systems and provide information on areas at risk of reducing energy supply, with a mechanism for selecting end-users. It will be a tool to help build incentives to reduce demand through the entire methodology to reduce demand. Implementation of the system into economic practice will prevent blackouts in the electricity system and reduce global balancing costs of the system
