Abstract :
This paper presents a simulation tool being developed at the chair of energy systems and energy economics at the University of Dortmund for the management of distributed energy resources. The first part describes the concept of organizing a great number of small energy converters in groups with local intelligence. The following part contains the realization of this concept with the help of a distributed database system. At the end the possibilities to accomplish comprehensive investigations concerning the coordination of different types of decentralized energy conversion systems within a so-called virtual power plant based on detailed simulation models are illustrated in an example.
