ASM TERNI MICROGRID (V2G)

The city of Terni is located in the centre of Italy and has about 110,000 inhabitants, with 65,000 electricity consumers connected to the power distribution network. Due to growing non-consumed local PV generation in the city, there are significant issues with reverse power flows. Thus, the DSO ASM Terni is seeking new technological solutions to add more flexibility to the grid, improve stability, and minimize congestion.

Use Cases

CHARGING SCENARIO: HOME CHARGING

Vehicle-to-home integration with HEMS for renewables’ integration and tariff optimization in prosumer and consumer homes.

Expected impacts

This demonstrator tests the role of V2G (vehicle-to-grid) in context of EV fleet charging stations as a flexible resource supporting efficient management of a microgrid system, by balancing load and generation through a dynamic V2G power exchange.

Business model

The main business model evaluates the value potential for EV fleets (and EV owners) participating in V2G-based stabilization of a localized distribution network (microgrid). When fleet vehicles are not in company use, they can capture revenues from grid services, which are paid for by the local energy manager of the facility.

Targets

  • Energy Managers

  • Distribution System Operators

  • EV Owners

  • CPOs

  • City Council
