4. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 4 The world changes Random production from renewables Intelligent consumption

5. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 5 So, do we need to build more peak power plants???

6. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 6 The upcoming paradigm is random but can be predicted can be planned Demand Production

7. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 7 Smart-LS and smart-DR The solutions cover load shifting (LS) and demand response (DR). Both solutions perform a bottom-up quantitative analysis based on a physical model of the process under control

8. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 8 Automated Demand Response Bids Simulate Monitor state -Exact energy estimates -Exact cost estimates -Always-on bidding -Proof of D/R energy volumes -Quantitative Back Testing

9. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 9 From process to model

10. © Actility – Confidential – Under NDA 10 Physical models -Constrained optimization -Purchasing/Selling optimization -Industrial process simulation model Computes: -Production/consumption nominal schedule -Maximum adjustment volume, upward and downward -Minimal adjustment offer prices Aggregation engine -Summation of offers -Safety margins -Financial models, optimal adjustment bid offers. TSO/tech interface -Bid submission and management -Periodic bid updates. Real time parameter data - volume, temperature, consumption, availability… Real-time control De-aggregation engine -Split activations to individual commands Reporting -Dashboard : predicted vs actual schedule, gains and penalties per activated bid. -Post-mortem analysis of won and lost bids. -Adjustment potential estimations. -Optimization of nominal schedule Statistical analysis -Database of adjustment prices/volumes -Forecast models OTC interface Internal market prior to TSO bidding TSO/finance interface -Consolidation of payments -Penalties
