Large-Scale Setpoint Tracking Controller for Co-regulation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations: Coordinating Charging with Energy Market Dynamics

This research explores the feasibility of building a large-scale setpoint tracking controller for the co-regulation of Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, aiming to coordinate charging with energy market dynamics and minimize the error between a power setpoint and the aggregated consumption of charging stations while capitalizing on...

Strategic Market Entry for Energy Aggregator Firms in the Netherlands: A qualitative study exploring potential business strategies and business models and their viability for aggregators in the Netherlands

A profound change is occurring in the Dutch energy system and significant growth in energy production from renewables can be observed. This requires flexibility solutions to balance the demand and supply of electricity. As described by the European Union in the Clean Energy Package, aggregators have the important responsibility to provide this...

Flexibility services by a community microgrid: Quantifying the value of flexibility services by a community microgrid in the context of the Dutch electricity sector using Schoonschip as case study

The volatile production of renewable energy sources is often considered a key issue in future sustainable energy systems. Drawing on microgrid research, we argue that the potential synergy between microgrid energy management and provision of flexibility services to the wider grid could be further explored. In addition, the trade-off between cost...
