        Researcher(s): Michel Rivier Abbad, José Pablo Chaves Ávila, Pablo Rodilla Rodríguez, Carlos Batlle López, Paolo Mastropietro, Paulo Brito Pereira, Shilpa Bindu, Matteo Troncia
        Description: This project is part of the FLEXENER project. It corresponds to one of the activities of said project. The main objective of the FLEXENER project is to investigate new technologies and simulation models in the field of renewable generation, storage systems and flexible demand management and operation of the distribution network. A 100% renewable and decarbonised energy mix is ??sought, effectively integrated into the electrical system of the future in a flexible, efficient and safe way. In this context, this project or activity has been in charge of designing configuration options for the electricity market that are adapted to the existence of a 100% renewable electricity system. The general configuration of the market has been analyzed (types of markets involved, their sequence, role of agents, type of agents), focusing in particular on capacity markets and balancing markets. The different options have been analyzed, identifying the advantages and disadvantages for a 100% renewable electricity system.

        *Abbreviated name: 2020_INC
        Project title: Implementing network codes
        Funding entity: Research Council of Norway (RCN), Statkraft, Statnett, Ministry of Petroleum and Energy, Nord Pool
        Start date: January 2021
        End date: December 2024
        Researcher(s): Paolo Mastropietro
        Description: The project investigates the implementation of European Network Codes and Guidelines’. These are detailed rules on electricity trade intended to improve and harmonize the EU internal energy market. They could have far-reaching consequences for how we use our electricity network, but so far, they have largely escaped scholarly attention. This project asks several fundamental questions: i) how have network codes and guidelines been designed and outlined at the general level? ii) how have they been further specified in various ‘terms, conditions and methods’ (TCMs) across Europe? iii) how have they actually worked in practice? iv) have they been able to deliver on the fundamental goal of increasing the efficiency of electricity trade within Europe?

        Description: BIO-FlexGen aims to significantly increase the efficiency, flexibility and cost effectiveness of renewable energy-based combined heat and power plants (CHP), enabling them to play a key role in integrating fluctuating renewable energy into the energy system, and therefore making a significant contribution to the decarbonisation of the energy system. Comillas will contribute to: 1) the socio and techno-economic evaluation of the of CHP technology under different scenarios and contexts. 2) analyse the barriers (market, regulatory, business models, etc.) for CHP deployment 3) contribute to the integration of digitalization strategy.

        Project title: New tools for the integration of energy systems: Spain's role in Europe's energy transition [ONESYSTEM] (CPP2022-009711)
        Funding entity: Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades (MICIU) , Agencia Estatal de Investigación (AEI) /10.13039/501100011033 , y por la Unión Europea NextGenerationEU/ PRTR
        Start date: November 2023
        End date: January 2028
        Researcher(s): Pablo Rodilla Rodríguez, Carlos Batlle López, Paolo Mastropietro, Antonio Bello Morales, Devashish Sonowal, Miguel Angel Barruso Recuero
        Description: The main energy carriers that will lead the energy transition are electricity and decarbonised gases, in particular green hydrogen. In the energy system of the future, the decarbonisation of industrial cooling/heating processes, the central role of hydrogen, the activation of demand and the coordination of the different energy vectors and markets through efficient economic signals will be key aspects. This necessary transformation of the economy in general and the energy sector in particular poses innumerable challenges. In this context, it will be essential to have tools to evaluate strategies that allow the Spanish economy to be relevant in the European decarbonization process. In order to provide solutions to the current challenges and constraints, the aim of the ONESYSTEM project is to research and develop tools for the integration of energy carriers that allow the exploitation of synergies between them to improve the efficiency of energy supply and minimise the cost of decarbonising the economy. These tools are of two types: modelling tools and regulatory tools. The former are based on the development of techno-economic analyses, which are essential in a context of unparalleled technological and economic uncertainty. The latter, crucial in a sector in which public-private coordination is essential, are focused on the design of the regulatory framework necessary for the appropriate development of new business models. This project aims to develop models for analysing possible future routes for the integration of energy systems, focusing on Spain and its interaction with the rest of Europe. As part of the project, it will also seek to ensure that the tools developed can be replicated in other European markets.
