Renewable energy communities : the contribution from the demand side
| Resumo: | With this project it is intended to assess Renewable Energy communities (REC), in terms of laws and regulations by the competent authority Energy Services Regulatory Authority (ERSE). It was conducted an analysis of the legal framework governing all self-consumers, not only RECs, evaluating the rights and responsibilities, and it was assessed the impacts RECs and RES cause on the electrical system, on the environment and on society. It was explained the procedure to deploy an Production Unit for Self- Consumption (UPAC), in terms of licensing by Directorate-General for Energy and Geology (DGEG), which depends on the power to be installed. The operational issues of RECs on relation to the distance of the UPAC and the consumer facility but also on the energy sharing model between them. It was performed an analysis on the component due to payment when a prosumer realizes this activity through the public grid. Proposition of a practical case, with a simulation to Instituto Superior de Engenharia de Coimbra (ISEC) become a prosumer and share its surplus in a REC, showing the energy yield and performing an economic and environmental analysis. |
