Integrating Demand-Side Strategies for Localised Energy Systems: Challenges and Opportunities

The D3 conference, held on March 27, 2014, addressed pressing issues and opportunities in Great Britain's energy landscape. Dr. Michael Jampel from the Energy Efficiency Deployment Office highlighted the need for large-scale generation alongside demand-side measures to meet future energy demands. Key topics included evaluating demand-side energy, demand reduction, response strategies, and distributed energy. With government initiatives in energy efficiency, smart grid technologies, and community energy strategies, the conference aimed to pave the way for a sustainable energy future in the UK.

  1. D3 – Integrating the Demand Side KTN 2014 Annual Conference Localised Energy Systems: Challenges and Opportunities 27 March 2014 Dr Michael Jampel Deputy Director, Energy Efficiency Deployment Office

  2. A decade of change • Great Britain’s electricity networks face a challenging future • We need large scale generation • Demand side and local measures also central to meeting UK’s future energy needs

  3. Evaluating Demand Side Energy • DECC has commissioned a review of policy and technical models relating to D3: • Demand reduction • Demand response • Distributed energy • How D3 is incorporated into DECC’s whole system energy models

  4. D3 – Demand Reduction • Government has wide portfolio of energy efficiency policies in place • EEDO co-ordinates – Products Policy recently added • Forthcoming areas of activity: ESOS, Demand Reduction Pilot, Zero Carbon Homes • Energy Efficiency Strategy Update December 2013

  5. D3 – Demand Side Response • Short-term shifting or flexing of load by reducing demand, increasing export or taking excess energy from a network • DSR eligible for Capacity Market • E.g. winter peak: 3-7pm • DECC Energy Entrepreneurs Fund

  6. D3 – Distributed Energy • Will play active role in meeting local energy demand • FITs – 420,000+ since April 2010 – 87% PV • RHI – domestic in spring 2014 • Community Energy Strategy launched January 2014 • DECC’s new Heat Networks Delivery Unit aims to transform UK district heating market

  7. Smart Grid Revolution • New Smart Grid Vision & Routemap published • Sets out need for investment in new smarter and low carbon technologies • Can provide gateway to wider energy system integration– facilitating the ‘Smart City’ and community energy scheme initiatives

  8. Demand Side/Consumer Focus storage DSR Smart Meter New Distribution Network ASHP Solar PV Solar thermal Insulation Behaviourchange MicroCHP D3 CHP Heat Network Biomass Boiler
