The EU-SysFlex French industrial-scale demonstrator: coordinating distributed resources for multi-services provision

Abstract

Funded by the European H2020 research program, the EU-SysFlex project aims at providing a roadmap for Europe to meet the challenge of integrating over 50% renewables by 2030. The project includes seven industrial-scale demonstrators to explore the provision of flexibility services to system operators, using resources from all system levels. This paper focuses on the description of the French demonstration project, the aim of which is to coordinate the operation of a portfolio of distributed resources for multi-services provision. The scientific approaches, the hardware components as well as the architecture of the demonstration are described in detail.
