Energy flexible buildings: An evaluation of definitions and quantification methodologies applied to thermal storage
Glenn Reynders,Rui Amaral Lopes,Anna Marszal-Pomianowska,Daniel Aelenei,João Martins,Dirk Saelens +5 more
TL;DR: A review and applied evaluation of existing definitions and quantification methodologies for energy flexibility shows that energy flexibility definitions found in the literature have their particularities despite sharing the same principle thatEnergy flexibility is the ability to adapt the energy profile without jeopardizing technical and comfort constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
A cooperative net zero energy community to improve load matching
TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of a Cooperative Net Zero Energy Community (CNet-ZEC) is introduced, extending discussion to the enhancement of load matching at a wider community level.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adaptive Façade: Concept, Applications, Research Questions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the findings of an analysis of the existing concepts and case studies and propose a new approach for characterization of these elements, which can make a significant and viable contribution to meeting the EU's 2020 targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Literature Review of Methodologies Used to Assess the Energy Flexibility of Buildings
TL;DR: In this paper, a literature review on methodologies to quantify the energy flexibility of buildings is presented, where the authors aim to improve the flexibility of the electrical system by taking advantage of renewable energy generation capacities and demand response measures in buildings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigating the potential for energy flexibility in an office building with a vertical BIPV and a PV roof system
TL;DR: The results show that load matching and grid interaction related metrics can be significantly improved by using the energy flexibility provided by a BESS and that the implementation of such system can be economically viable for a 10-year period.
