Book Description
Current developments in the renewable energy field, and the trend toward self-production and self-consumption of energy, has led to increased interest in the means of storing electrical energy; a key element of sustainable development. This book provides an in-depth view of the environmentally responsible energy solutions currently available for use in the building sector. It highlights the importance of storing electrical energy, demonstrates the many services that the storage of electrical energy can bring, and discusses the important socio-economic factors related to the emergence of smart buildings and smart grids. Finally, it presents the methodological tools needed to build a system of storage-based energy management, illustrated by concrete, pedagogic examples.

Book Description
L'avènement de la libéralisation des marchés de l'énergie a été un facteur clé de succès du développement des énergies renouvelables et de la maîtrise de la demande en énergie. L'insertion massive des productions décentralisées intermittentes sur les réseaux de distribution engendre une complexité de fonctionnement qui est préjudiciable à la sécurité. L'introduction des technologies de l'information et de la communication permet de pallier cette difficulté et ouvre des perspectives nouvelles dans la maîtrise de la demande énergétique en intégrant le consommateur dans le pilotage du réseau. C'est l'objet de l'ouvrage consacré aux réseaux intelligents connus sous le nom de SmartGrids. Le concept de Smartgrids est abordé sous diverses facettes par l'aspect commercial, économiques, réglementaire par des auteurs spécialistes de ces questions. La partie technique est abordée à la fois par l'aspect énergétique et celui des télécommunications et du comptage.

Book Description
The dynamic of the Energy Transition is engaged in many region of the World. This is a real challenge for electric systems and a paradigm shift for existing distribution networks. With the help of "advanced" smart technologies, the Distribution System Operators will have a central role to integrate massively renewable generation, electric vehicle and demand response programs. Many projects are on-going to develop and assess advanced smart grids solutions, with already some lessons learnt. In the end, the Smart Grid is a mean for Distribution System Operators to ensure the quality and the security of power supply. Several books have been written to provide a definition of Smart grids, explore the different technical evolution needed and explain / analyse what would be the benefits. All those books are conducted on theoretical basis by academics and strategy consultants. This new book will propose a complementary and singular approach based on a practical experience from DSO's.

Book Description
This book presents interdisciplinary approaches to help buildings, electrical energy networks and their users contribute to the energy and societal transition. Smart Grids and Buildings for Energy and Societal Transition examines the technologies, uses and imaginaries involved in implementing smart buildings and smart grids. Production and consumption forecasts, modeling of stakeholder involvement and self-consumption within a renewable energy community exploiting blockchain technology are examples developed with a view to fostering the emergence of smart grids. The potential of smart buildings, taking into account user comfort while increasing energy efficiency, is identified. Full-scale demonstrators are used to test the proposed solutions, and to ensure that users take full advantage of the potential for electrical flexibility.

Book Description
Electricity Decentralization in the European Union: Towards Zero Carbon and Energy Transition, Second Edition examines progress in decentralization across the European Union, with each chapter focusing on developments and innovations in a specific country. Sections provide an overview of the current role and state of smart grids, the conceptualization of energy transition, and specific cases across all EU states. Across the chapters, regulatory frameworks are assessed to identify to what extent it is conducive to decentralization, with specific outcomes of decentralization covered in detail, including deployment of smart grids and meters, demand response, electric vehicles, and storage. The book highlights how specific EU member states are progressing towards deployment of these tools and technologies, along with the specific needs and regulatory barriers in each and recommendations for how regulation can be more encouraging. In addition, electricity interconnections in the EU are considered as a vital step towards decentralization in order to boost energy security and energy efficiency. Finally, the book includes a detailed examination of data protection concerns that arise from the advent of new technologies that collect personal information, such as smart grids, assessing current regulation on data protection and identifying areas for improvement, as well as innovative finance options for sustainable energy. - Analyzes the regulatory environment with regard to decentralization - Explores new tools and technologies to facilitate decentralization, along with current progress in each - Addresses barriers and suggests improvements across tools, technologies and regulations

Book Description
Le contexte actuel mène les concepteurs vers des systèmes toujours plus complexes et performants, intégrant un grand nombre d’éléments souvent fortement couplés et appartenant à divers champs de la physique énergétique. Après une présentation de l’approche systémique de conception, ce premier volume rassemble les points-clés permettant de modéliser et de caractériser efficacement des systèmes multiphysiques (formalismes graphiques, Bond Graphs, GIC/REM), d’analyser la qualité et la stabilité des réseaux et de contribuer à la robustesse en conception intégrée. La gestion de l’énergie des systèmes énergétiques hybrides incluant du stockage est également largement détaillée et différentes méthodes statistiques permettant de dimensionner les réseaux ou de caractériser leur sûreté de fonctionnement sont proposées (par exemple, la méthode de Monte-Carlo). Les techniques d’analyse, de synthèse et de gestion présentées dans cet ouvrage participent à l’optimisation des systèmes énergétiques. Elles sont complétées par des approches spécifiquement orientées vers la conception par optimisation, objets du second volume.
