Novel business concepts utilizing load-flexibility offered by battery storage systems, electric heating and vehicles are emerging. This paper investigates the economic potential of such concepts when applied to households and highlights the view from a German DSO on integrating battery storage into Smart Grids. In this context, a new concept called “virtual metering” is presented, which uses an optimization...
Photovoltaic (PV) system operators in Germany with an installed PV peak power of less than 30 kWp are obliged to either let their PV infeed being reduced externally or to generally limit their maximum PV infeed to a threshold of 70% of the installed PV peak power. This curtailment reduces the PV-induced grid load significantly but also leads to a notable loss of renewable energy. This paper presents...
This paper analyzes the effects of providing feedback on electricity consumption in a field trial involving more than 1500 households in Linz, Austria. About half of these households received feedback together with information about electricity-saving measures (pilot group), while the remaining households served as a control group. Participation in the pilot group was random, but households were able...
This paper investigates the abilities of locally dispersed heat pumps connected to a thermal heat storage to perform demand-side management activities in an existing urban low voltage distribution grid in Germany. To do so, a model is developed using DiGSILENT PowerFactory to simulate the operation of a heating system incorporating an air-to-water heat pump connected to a thermal heat storage by performing...
The wild-type A75/17 canine distemper virus (CDV) strain induces a persistent infection in the central nervous system but infects cell lines very inefficiently. In contrast, the genetically more distant Onderstepoort CDV vaccine strain (OP-CDV) induces extensive syncytia formation. Here, we investigated the roles of wild-type fusion (F WT ) and attachment (H WT ) proteins in Vero cells...
