1 1 Sector coupling - exchange of experiences and perspectives Social significance of decentralized energy supply and the future of energy clusters Warsaw, 21st June 2018 Elektrownie NEXT

2 But it does move Changes in the energy landscape yesterday and today Number of power plants in Germany Decentralization Number of spot exchanges in Europe 0 12 Liberalization Number of LTE connections (global) Digitization Energy sources Fossil & nuclear energy sources Renewable & fossil energy sources Nuclear phase-out / start of decarbonization The Virtual Power Plant for an energy system based on renewable energy Flexibility thanks to decentralized and decarbonized units Liberalized power gives small-scale operators access to markets 2

9 SHAPING THE ENERGY SYSTEM OF THE FUTURE 9

10 Our products: Power trading / direct marketing How small assets can sell their power on the power exchange Overview Forecast and trading of each asset s produced power on the EPEX spot (in 15-minute intervals) 24/7 correction of forecast deviation by our power traders Benefits Higher reliability for integrating renewable energies into the power markets, fewer shortfalls within the power system Owner pays a fee for worry-free trading Together with other asset owners, Marius Pötting benefits from additional revenue through direct marketing. 10

11 Our products: peak load operation How small assets can gain access to the power markets Overview Producing power when it is in demand on the power exchange and able to fetch a better price From a weekly schedule to trading based on a 15-minute cycle of optimization BoE 7 / BoE 24 / BoE 96 Benefits Harmonizing supply and demand of power for the entire system Revenue is split between the owner and Next Kraftwerke With his biomethane CHP, Stefan Kienz produces power when it most valuable. 11

12 Our products: Grid stabilizing flexibility How even small assets can provide grid stabilizing flexibility Overview As a cluster, assets execute the TSO signal within seconds All control reserve products for all TSO regions in Germany with an available flexibility of: R1: 67 MW, R2: 779 MW and R3: 1,160 MW Benefits Our Next Pool stabilizes grid frequency and prevents blackouts The revenue is split between the asset owner and Next Kraftwerke Through the Virtual Power Plant, Onno Wilberts and Guido Koch, owner of a biogas plant in Beverstedt, Lower Saxony, Germany, have been providing grid stabilizing flexibility since
