Abstract

In this paper, the authors start by discussing the main community engagement activities that were carefully designed and conducted to bring the local community and all relevant stakeholders in both demonstrators on board. It also highlights the on-going activities that are being used to keep participants engaged with the project. The resultant tangible socio-economic impacts of energy storage were also examined based on two questionnaires that were distributed to participants and from recorded energy generation and consumption data.
