Abstract
In the new paradigm of smart grids, load flexibility remuneration strategies play a key role in defining innovative business models and market frameworks using distributed energy resources and demand response. This article establishes a set of use cases used to support the application of remuneration strategies considering contextual load flexibility. In other words, the various new tariffs and remuneration plans consider the context provided by solar and wind power, different times of the day and week, temperature, and electricity market prices. Also, depending on the circumstances, dynamically specified consumer clusters are envisaged for a realistic validation of results while also analysing higher smart grid efficiency, decreased pollutant emissions, and cheaper energy prices. The proposed use cases are proposed in the context of COLORS (COntextual LOad flexibility Remuneration Strategies), a project investigating business models and market frameworks with a particular emphasis on demand response.
