Invitation to iPower Conference 18-19 November 2014 at DTU Risø Live Demonstrations & Presentations Control of individual consumption units and coordinated operation of distribution networks provision of services to the grid. At the demonstration the aggregator will control a chiller installed at Grundfos and a supermarket refrigeration unit installed at Danfoss. We are pleased to invite you to live demonstrations of key technologies developed in the iPower project. In iPower the complete chain of demand response is covered – from the user to impact on society. iPower has strong focus on taking the research results further towards the market. In the light of this, the conference pays particular attention to implementation of the technologies, and significant results will be presented through demonstrations. Insero Software has developed a similar aggregator of household consumption that is currently being demonstrated at their Live Lab at Stenderup. Here it aggregates heat pumps and electric vehicles, and the aggregator has been extended and enabled to integrate with the Flexibility Clearing House FLECH. FLECH is a software infrastructure that enables Distribution System Operators and aggregators to interact, so the potential flexibility controlled by the aggregators can be provided to the DSOs in a market-based way. At the event the live interaction between several aggregators and a DSO will be demonstrated. For setting the scene, we are very happy that Director of the Energy Agency, Morten Bæk will present the Danish perspective on smart grids, and David Hill of OpenEnergi will introduce the demand response market in the UK and give us insight into the way OpenEnergi operates in that market. Further Dr. Mathias Uslar, OFFIS will present the results of an extensive German study on future distribution networks and how smart grids can be used to reduce the future distribution network costs. Key iPower results will be demonstrated and presented at the conference. Residential test houses at Risø and Grundfos in Bjerringbro will be used for demonstrating how individual houses can be controlled. The demonstrations will show how flexibility can be used for controlling the power consumption of heating systems to follow external requirements, and it will be shown how the house can be integrated into a market. Industrial loads present a large potential for providing flexibility. An optimal aggregator developed by Aalborg University has been developed and will be demonstrated. The aggregator is able to aggregate different types of loads with different characteristics and make the flexibility available for We are looking forward to seeing you at the conference.
