DSO Flexibility Market Framework for Renewable Energy Community of Nanogrids

With the introduction of the renewable energy communities in the current electrical market environment, it becomes possible to aggregate small generation resources and users' loads to exchange power within the aggregation and at the same time provide services to the electrical system. The renewable energy community of users equipped with nanogrid technology allows performing an adequate level of flexibility. It may be the solution to coordinate in the best possible way the energy resources in order to increase the community self-consumption and to provide ancillary services to the grid. In this paper, a model for the interaction between the Distribution System Operator (DSO)-Transmission System Operator (TSO) and the energy community based on nanogrids is proposed and an operational example is presented.
