Presentation of the REnnovates project. The course and progress of the project, the different phases, business models, demonstrators, results (energy savings, smart control), key lessons, achievements, replication

1. Welcome to
Starting event
28-08-2018

3. 40% of energy consumed in built environment
most buildings are already built

4. We want to be part of the solution

5. Will this be a long journey?
Hopefully not – but we need friends to achieve scaling

6. & users, municipalities, housing associations
Partners in our journey
Goal: implement deep renovation in Europe & provide scalable solution that is scalable

7. 1. Improve performance and extend lifetime
2. Use Energy Savings to support investment
3. Long term performance guarantee and lifecycle approach
4. Industrialize to reduce costs and support scaling
5. Smart control for more flexible and robust solution
6. Support energy transition.
REnnovates
Flexibility Activated Neighbourhoods

8. Technology Concept
Save energy
through insulating
the building using
a modular, pre-
fabricated system
Minimize
consumption by
using efficient
installations in the
pre- fabricated
Energy Module
Optimize local
energy consumption
and production and
enable flexibility
value cases
Orchestrate
neighbourhood
interaction to
support the
infrastructure
and community

9. Methodology

10. Configurability is key
besides energetic flexibility, we need technological flexibility

11. Business Model
we create win-win by supporting the energy transition and transforming buildings

12. Multifamily home and municipality level
demonstrator in Spain
249 houses in 4 areas in
the Netherlands
Home batteries and district
battery (Woerden)
Virtual demonstrator in Poland
focussing on blocks of flats (928
apartments) in Warsaw
Deployment of USEF and
EEBus standards
Demonstrators
in theory, practice and theory are the same, in practice, they are not -Einstein

15. Results: Local smart Control
implementing smart control we optimize the local house

16. Results: District
reduce congestion with houses and neighbourhood battery
88%

Realization

17. Is this economically feasible?
Implementation of smart control leads to a more robust business case
Payback < lifetime extension
Local value 11,5-110 euro/yr
District value up to 250 euro/yr
When energy market becomes more dynamic:
cost reduction 20-50% by application of smart control
Yes.

18. USERS!
users become partners that actively participate in communities
No additional
cost
Additional
comfort
Sustainable
housing
Cohesion

19. Did we solve everything?
Local flexibility insufficient
(1kW/1kWh – 3kW/2,5kWh)
50% of congestion solved
Need more flexibility providers (demonstrated in Woerden)
Need to increase reliability (reduce risk)

20. Key lessons
Need robust monitoring infrastructure
Continued push for standardization
and simplification needed
Need flexibility in: energy
management, configuration and
business model
Uncertainty in policy development
Smart Control makes the business
case more robust
Market organization is needed, split
incentive needs to be resolved
use Facilitator

21. Key lessons
Policy to support a dynamic market,
integration of built environment, clear
roadmap and means to capture value
An ecosystem of partners is needed
to provide smart cities as a product
Integration and total value approach
leads to win-win (shared platforms,
integrated process)
Added comfort, sustainability and
cohesion recognized

22. There is a clear market
100Mt of CO2 potentially saved

23. Replication and exploitation
Expansion of REnnovates with 49 houses in
2nd DSO area demonstrating replication of
USEF and REnnovates concept
Development of REnnovates Energy Module
and replication in new projects in the hundreds
Initial demonstrator in Belgium,
exporting Energy Modules

24. Replication and exploitation results
Project portal implemented at 25 customers
Deployment of algorithms across Europe
Replication of REnnovates lessons in H2020
IRIS project in Utrecht (USEF deployment)
Design Tools (BMT, District Simulation and
Block or Flat (Polish) simulator as replicable
components – first leads pursuit

25. REnnovates offers foundation
expand flexibility, user services, collaborations

26. REnnovates offers foundation
expand flexibility, user services, collaborations
Want to move beyond sustainability
Demonstrated ability to provide comfort, health and sustainability while supporting the
energy infrastructure while connecting users in smart communities
Feasible do transform areas to smart
neighbourhoods across Europe
Flexibility in configuration, business case
and energy use is the key

27. REnnovates
Flexibility Activated Neighbourhoods

28. “I believe we have the opportunity to bring “Smart
Neighbourhoods” into viable business, providing value to
communities, thereby shaping the business ecosystem and
contributing to the (social)environment beyond sustainability”
