This project is part of the FLEXENER project. It corresponds to one of the activities of said project. The main objective of the FLEXENER project is to investigate new technologies and simulation models in the field of renewable generation, storage systems and flexible demand management and operation of the distribution network. A 100% renewable and decarbonised energy mix is ??sought, effectively integrated into the electrical system of the future in a flexible, efficient and safe way.
In this context, this project or activity has been in charge of designing configuration options for the electricity market that are adapted to the existence of a 100% renewable electricity system. The general configuration of the market has been analyzed (types of markets involved, their sequence, role of agents, type of agents), focusing in particular on capacity markets and balancing markets. The different options have been analyzed, identifying the advantages and disadvantages for a 100% renewable electricity system.


Layman's summary: This project is part of the FLEXENER Project whose objective is to investigate and solve the technical challenges of operating a future 100% renewable electricity system. This project specifically analyzes how the design of electricity markets (configuration, agents, etc.) should evolve to be adapte
