SYMBIOSE - System interconnecting optimized decentral hybrid storage, 834635

In order to massively integrate distributed generation units into the existing energy system decentralized electrical energy storages of varying type (electrochemical, chemical, thermal, unconventional) are a key factor. The development of new potentials for distributed energy storages by decentralized coupling of existing parallel infrastructures (electrical power system, gas and thermal networks) is the basic idea of the project. For representative pilot regions optimal positions and dimensions of hybrid storage systems are identified and their consequences on the grid operation are analysed. The achievable improvements (e.g. reduction of CO2 emissions, less import dependencies on fossil fuels, etc.) through an area-wide application of the presented approach will be extrapolated on the basis of the regional results
