We are glad to inform you that our article entitled “A modular high-resolution demand-side management model to quantify benefits of demand-flexibility in the residential sector” has been published in the Energy Conversion and Management journal. Increasing shares of renewable energy sources and managing total demand are considered pivotal for energy transitions that fundamentally re-envisage the electricity system. A key challenge of such transitions is integrating and absorbing increased shares of non-dispatchable renewable energy sources, without jeopardizing the security and the reliability of the electricity system. To this end, key solutions include the introduction of demand-side management. However, so far, demand-side…

Assoc. Professor Dr. Alexandros Flamos, Director of TEESlab, participated in the 14th Conference on Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems (SDEWES14) in Dubrovnik, presenting preliminary modeling outcomes on the evaluation of the performance of Energy Efficiency Measures (EEMs), towards the decarbonization of the building sector in Greece. More particularly, Prof. Flamos, considering that the building stock in Greece is in need of immediate renovations, highlighted the importance of assessing the performance of conventional and innovative (based on Demand-Response actions) EEMs focusing on tackling energy poverty, in terms of their long-term energy savings, sustainability, risk, and return of investment.…
