In this paper we explore some methods to offer ancillary services by domestic demand response on a low voltage grid. These grids are becoming more and more inundated with decentralized renewable energy production, often leading to congestion issues. We show how domestically provided ancillary services can mitigate these problems. While demand response is already becoming established on large-scale...
During the past years, a large amount of photovoltaic (PV) capacity has been installed in Belgium. The main driver for this was the abundant government support (Green Power Certificates). However, during the last few years, the support for new installations has been withdrawn and new PV capacity ceased. In previous research, it has been proven that selling PV energy of existing plants directly on...
Obtaining and maintaining large-scale datasets of actual measurements of a variety of different parameters typically requires significant effort by researchers or individuals. The monitoring of distributed renewable energy production across a wide geographical area is no different in this aspect. The increasingly pervasive availability of digital communication makes it possible to develop a computer...
Installed photo voltaic energy grew exponentially during the last decade. One of the driving forces was the often generous governmental support. In Belgium (Flanders) for example, investors could acquire green power certificates worth €450/MWh during several years. However, due to the large boom of solar plants and hence rising subsidy cost, governments are dropping this support (eg. €450/MWh in 2009...
