Spain’s Energy-Community & Battery Storage Model
A new electricity market model for energy distribution was developed by researchers from the University of Jaén in Spain in collaboration with the University of Hong Kong and the University of Amman in Jordan. This model aims to integrate energy communities and battery energy systems (BESS) effectively, resulting in a lower reliance on high-priced distributed energy from the wholesale market. The researchers have tested this model in various types of electrical networks and it has demonstrated its viability, resulting in a more efficient use of the distributed resources.
