1 KIC- EIT Co-location Benelux Intelligent, energy efficient buildings and cities Applied to Polygeneration June , Stockholm Bart Verbruggen, Tom De Rybel

2 The CC Benelux Partnership Full Partners: Education Research Industry Associate Partners: Research Industry Venture Capital 2

3 Research & Innovation Four main themes four projects: Integrating energy flows in densely populated areas Active sub-stations Energy performance reference models Intelligent house with minimum energy needs Energy storage (Thermal and Electrical) Thermo-chemical storage Individual transport and impact on grid-based energy carriers Intelligent charging processes 3

4 Polygeneration? The term polygeneration means an energy supply system, which delivers more than one form of energy to the final user - polygeneration.net If electricity and/or district heat are considered to be of equal importance as the biofuels, a polygeneration strategy is applied. - icps-conference.eu Polygeneration describes an integrated process which has three or more outputs that include energy outputs, produced from one or more natural resources. - Polygeneration in Europ technical report 4

5 CC BeNeLux at a Glance 5

6 Position of CC BeNeLux in EIT Scope: Smart Cities / Buildings Distribution network (MV & LV) Customer interaction Vision: Urban environments are key areas in sustainable future Irreversible evolution towards CO 2 neutrality Full trias energetica including system integration will form an essential element in this evolution Large integration of local distributed renewables Integrate transport, buildings and grid aspects Integration with other urban aspects 6

7 Position of CC BeNeLux in EIT Action Domain Focus Generation: System integration of local distributed renewables Infrastructure/network: Local electricity, gas and thermal (Heat/Cold) grids Storage Distributed local storage Electrical and Thermal storage Consumption/end-users: Active end-users Integration of transport in buildings/district/city infrastructure 7

8 CC BeNeLux projects vs Polygeneration - Energy Storage: Integrate intermittent renewable energy sources efficiently Enable energy services Integration through thermal and electrical storage Relation with Polygeneration:» More than one energy carriers involved» Facilitates integration of different RES Some Relation with Polygeneration and integration of small scale polygeneration on local level 8

9 CC BeNeLux projects vs Polygeneration - Intelligent building with minimum energy needs: Monitoring and forecasting energy transformation process Open source reference model of buildings and cities Simulate and evaluate energy performance of cities, districts, buildings, systems, components Relation with Polygeneration:» Multiple grid based energy carriers» Facilitates integration of different RES Some Relation with Polygeneration on local level 9

10 CC BeNeLux projects vs Polygeneration - Individual transport and impact on gridbased energy carriers: Transition to a sustainable electrified transport system based on local, renewable energy carriers. Integration of electric vehicles in urban areas Relation with Polygeneration:» V2G and V2H concepts can be seen as small scale local polygeneration Little Relation with Polygeneration 10

11 CC BeNeLux projects vs Polygeneration - Active substations: Helps solve distribution grid PQ problems due to DER and P(H)EV Enable active control and improve knowledge of system state Relation with Polygeneration:» Integration of distributed generation (CHP,PV,...) can benefit from the integration of active substations, limiting disconnection of generation Some Relation with integrating Polygeneration on a small scale 11
