Easy Smart Grid leverages all flexibility available in the grid to allow a higher share of RE and thus lower energy cost. The commercial relationship between supplier and user is based on a fair energy price and incentives reflecting the constraints and added value of all actors (volatility, comfort, productivity, cheaper energy, flexibility and control).
Easy Smart Grid proposes a cost efficient solution with:
- Limited communication to be implemented (none for small contributors)
- Higher RE penetration → reduction of total energy cost/price
- Use of existing Demand Side Management potential wherever economically attractive (negligible transaction cost)
- Less investment in dedicated storage
