The
full title of the project is the ‘Optimal balancing of demand and supply
through RES in urban areas’. The overall objective of the TetraEner project is to optimise the
balance of community supply and demand, through the application of energy
efficiency (EE) measures and increase in the use of renewable energy
sources (RES), combined with adequate storage systems and intelligent
management.
The two main communities (San Sebastian and Geneva) and the associated one (Frankfurt) participating in the TetraEner project can offer a series
of synergies with regard to the priorities set in the CONCERTO initiative.
These include: large scale integration of renewable energy sources,
eco-buildings, poly-generation, intelligent energy management and supply
assurance.
The TetraEner project includes a number of research actions needed for the right design of the demonstration installations:
- Development of a
continuous monitoring system with data transmission over the power line.
- Development of a computer
model that will simulate the system performances, monitor its efficiency
and analyse its sensitivity to uncertain parameters such as water
temperature variations, cost variations, and additional users.
- Development of a
methodology for environmental and energy district planning
