Grid and market HUB : empowering local energy communities in integrid

Abstract

This paper describes the grid and market hub (gm-hub) platform that is being developed as part of the H2020 InteGrid project and its capabilities to empower local energy communities by democratizing access to smart meter data and foster data-driven energy services. The gm-hub will bring together the interests of the electricity sector’s stakeholders, which will make their decisions with better information, based on data provided by the DSO such as electricity consumption. InteGrid is working in the implementation of a local social network for contextual feedback about energy consumption in order to foster behavioural demand response in a local community.
