Integrated Planning of a Solar/Storage Collective
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Arshpreet Singh, Yvon Bésanger +1
French regulation allows consumers in low-voltage networks to form collectives to produce, share, and consume local energy under the collective self-consumption framework. A natura…
Energy Communities: From European Law to Numerical Modeling
Clement Alaton, Jesus Contreras-Ocaña, Philippine de Radiguès +2
In 2019, the European Union introduced two new actors in the European energy system: Renewable and Citizen Energy Communities (RECs and CECs). Modelling these two new actors and th…
Non-Wire Alternatives: an Additional Value Stream for Distributed Energy Resources
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Yize Chen, Uzma Siddiqi +1
Distributed energy resources (DERs) can serve as non-wire alternatives (NWAs) to capacity expansion by managing peak load to avoid or delay traditional expansion projects. However,…
Tractable and Robust Modeling of Building Flexibility Using Coarse Data
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Miguel A. Ortega-Vazquez, Daniel Kirschen +1
Controllable building loads have the potential to increase the flexibility of power systems. A key step in developing effective and attainable load control policies is modeling the…
Non-Wire Alternatives to Capacity Expansion
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Uzma Siddiqi, Baosen Zhang
Distributed energy resources (DERs) can serve as non-wire alternatives to capacity expansion by managing peak load to avoid or defer traditional expansion projects. In this paper,…
Participation of an Energy Storage Aggregator in Electricity Markets
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocana, Miguel A. Ortega-Vazquez, Baosen Zhang
An important function of aggregators is to enable the participation of small energy storage units in electricity markets. This paper studies two generally overlooked aspects relate…
Cooperation and Competition among Energy Storages
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Miguel A. Ortega-Vazquez, Baosen Zhang
We study competition and cooperation among a group of storage units. We show that as the number of storages increases, the profit of storages approaches zero under Nash competition…
