The research project TECHUS GRID aims at the realization of a platform (proof of concept) for the operational and accounting management of Dynamic Energy Communities (DECs); DECs represent an evolution of “static” energy communities because they integrate “dynamic external” factors such as environmental well-being within the property and daily habits in energy use by users to the concept of energy sharing. The platform, in fact, returns energy balancing results, not only based on the energy produced and consumed, but also on the basis of information on environmental well-being conditions within the property, acquired through environmental sensors and on the basis of user load curve profiles interpreted by an AI algorithm that performs a pattern recognition and load disaggregation analysis on the acquired profiles. The platform, therefore, will implement an intelligent management model that can make decisions for the economic valuation of the shared energy used by the individual user based on information on consumption profiles and environmental well-being within the property. On the management model, in addition, solutions for accounting for energy exchanges among peers at the local level will be investigated by exploiting blockchain technology. For this purpose, automated credit distribution logics based on smart contracts and oracles, i.e., systems that can acquire data and information from outside and then provide those inputs to the smart contracts themselves, will be designed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"gruppo":[123],"class_list":["post-13307","projects","type-projects","status-publish","hentry","gruppo-data-intensive-computing-en"],"acf":{"title":"Piattaforma per la gestione operativa e contabile delle Dynamic Energy Communities","acronym":"TECHUS GRID ","project_uuid":"fdb8c42a-0938-11ef-8ceb-506b8da9258c","start_date":"01\/06\/2023","end_date":"30\/11\/2024","funder":"RAS - Sardegna Ricerche","partners":"\n
