INCREASE THE LOCAL SHARE OF RENEWABLES
AND FOSTER THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW
ELECTRIC USES SUCH AS E-MOBILITY
MANAGE CONSTRAINTS IN THE
DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS IN A COST-
EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT WAY
ACTIVATE A LARGE PANEL
OF FLEXIBILITY SOURCES
AT A LOCAL SCALE
InterFlex is a EU-funded H2020 project which
aims to optimize the electric power system
by investigating the INTERactions between
FLEXibilities on a local scale.

The project Generalized Operational FLEXibility for IntegratingRenewables in the Distribution Grid
(GOFLEX) has received funding from the European Union‘s Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under grant agreement No 731232.
16th EEM Conference, Ljubljana 18-20 September 2019
InterFlex & GOFLEX Panel
GOFLEX approach: Complete harmonization of Electricity market system Based on Harmonized eletricity market model by ENTSO-E, EFET and
EbIX
Key words:
• Vertically nested („cellular“) subsystems in both market and grid segments
• Cellular DSO: responsible for its grid under parental responsibility of TSO
• Automated Flexibility trading: Prosumers offer their energy flexibilities on
the market
• Prosumers = energy reservoirs (virtual, explicit)
• Dynamic pricing is applied to maximize available flexibility on the market
• Global optimum (avoided cost principle) is pursued by introducing energy
transfer costs in the distribution grids
EEM Conference INTERFLEX/GOFLEX Panel, September 20, 2019 11
Vision: It could represent the prime mover in this second (“post- CEP”)
phase of process towards low carbon society
BG
MBA BA
• The electricity grid system within MBA can be
harmonized into vertically nested subsystems:
MBA (TSO territory)
DSO territory
sub-DSO territory
• DSO system becomes a „cellular“ subsystem of TSO system – and
the DSO becomes responsible for balancing its distribution
grid (= „cellular“ DSO)
• New business model of DSO that enables this is based on
avoided costs of TSO
Boosting concomitant:
The energy transfer costs along the grid as a cost parameter
should be introduced into distribution grids.
enabling (implicit) transfer capacity trading enabling
system wide optimization
Further harmonization of the system in the segment of electrical grid

• Necessary ingredient: energy (flexibility)
trading on the prosumer level & by prosumers.
• To maximize available DR of the prosumers on
the market: dynamic pricing based on local
conditions on the grid should be used.
Further structuring of electricity market system downwards
• The market segment of the system can be
structured further downwards
• Balance Group
Sub-balance group
Local energy community,
Local micro-grid system
Prosumer is the lowest level subsystem in
electricity market system
On the lowest levels, the system becomes
territorial!
the concept is extended downwards to the prosumer

Enabling technologies and solutions - GOFLEX Integrated solution platform (example: DSO Use case)
Capturing ALL Flexibilities with FlexOffers

• Exact location
• Aggregatable
• Optional constraints: total energy, slice
dependencies, production/mixed, grid
capacity,…
• It is an OFFER from prosumer to flex
purchaser
• No force/curtailment
• Explicit offer with commitment
• Well-defined protocol
Using FlexOffers - In GOFLEX and beyond

Next Step: Open FlexOffer Community
From Thinking to Doing
17
Deploy flexibility to have a
self-sufficient energy supply
➢ Meeting energy needs of
residential & commercial
customers with 100%
renewable & regionally
produced energy
Explore flexibility offered by
the public sector
➢ Testing the microgrid case
of a university as local
energy community
Use flexibility to reduce the need
of upgrading grid infrastructure
➢ Optimising the balance for the
DSO to reduce corrective costs
➢ Using demand-side
management to reduce peak
loads on the distribution grid GOFLEX Integrated platform Demo projects• 3 locations: Germany, Cyprus, Switzerland
• Different DSO-centric Use cases: Congestion
management and energy balancing in DSO grids, local
energy community
• Prosumers: appr. 500 prosumers of all types:
environmental, industrial, residential, EVs
Biggest drivers to implement a Goflex system
o … to reduce costs in balancing portfolios
o … to reduce costs in managing grids (CAPEX, OPEX)
o … to manage autonomous systems
o … to operate islands or islanded parts of the overall system
o … to support local energy communities
(including regional energy market platforms)
o … to have a stable platform to host many services
(including FlexOffer solutions)
