A digital infrastructure for integrating decentralized assets into redispatch. Decentralized Redispatch (DEER): Interfaces for providing flexibility

In response to the challenges posed by an increasingly decentralized energy system characterized by a high penetration of renewable energy sources, grid operators are experiencing heightened pressure to effectively manage grid congestion. Concurrently, both the European Union as well as the German government's ambitious climate tar-gets are fostering the proliferation of small-scale systems like heat pumps, photovoltaic systems, and electric cars, thereby enhancing the flexibility potential for redispatch operations. The project Decentralized Redispatch (DEER): Interfaces for providing flex-ibility aims to explore the integration of micro-flexibility into congestion management practices. The project's primary focus lies in designing an architecture in the context of a multi-agent-system that facilities secure and sovereign communication among all stakeholders in such a decentralized redispatch, ensuring both privacy and verifiability. The DEER project sets out to analyze the potential of leveraging self-sovereign identity management methods, combined with technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs and distributed ledgers, as a robust framework for achieving these objectives.
