Siemens AG is a technology company focused on industry, infrastructure, transport, and healthcare. From more resource-efficient factories, resilient supply chains, and smarter buildings and grids, to cleaner and more comfortable transportation as well as advanced healthcare, the company creates technology with the purpose of adding real value for customers. By combining the real and the digital worlds, Siemens empowers its customers to transform their industries and markets, helping them to transform everyday life for billions of people. Within DataBri-X Siemens is leading the “renewable energy communities use case”.
The Clean energy for all Europeans packages sets the framework for “renewable energy communities”. Energy communities organize collective and citizen-driven energy actions that will help pave the way for a clean energy transition, while moving citizens to the fore. They contribute to increased public acceptance of renewable energy projects and make it easier to attract private investments in the clean energy transition. At the same time, they have the potential to provide direct benefits to citizens by advancing energy efficiency and lowering their electricity bills.
The economic feasibility of an EC depends on its participants as well as the intended goal of the EC. Simulations pose a valuable tool in the design and validation of energy communities. However, such simulations are challenging given the large heterogeneity, not only of the actors in the community, but also of the data, both in terms of data type and quality. This calls for data management tools that can deal with multiple data descriptions and provide tools for accessing and managing data quality, all while ensuring that privacy and security requirements are met.
The webinar introduces the DataBri-X project, while Konrad Diwold and Josiane Xavier Parreira present the energy use case of the project.
