DISTRIBUTION
- one way communication
CONSUMPTION
PRODUCTION
- increasing maintenance cost - high impact - expensive infrastructure for reliability - limited application of RES
Graduation project - Edoardo Costa - TU Delft - Shifft
2. CHALLENGES why we have to act
POLLUTION
- - - -
global warming laws public opinion cost & impact
PRICES
- rising for fossil res - decresing for green tech
ENERGY OF THE FUTURE - Smart Grids application
FOSSIL RES.
- ending - expensive - polluting
R.E.S.

MATCH
- create communication between consumers and producers through smart distribution - communication can realize this match with - consumer can communicate energy needed - producers can communicate energy available - combination of strategies
ENERGY OF THE FUTURE - Smart Grids application
Graduation project - Edoardo Costa - TU Delft - Shifft
5. BOUNDARIES limits and key-factors for the project
-
just pilots Smart Grid in the Netherlands focus on home environment focus on home appliances economic and technological future boundaries about Smart Grid already available - producer-consumer communication needs new user’s behavior (planning, active reaction, target setting, etc)
ENERGY OF THE FUTURE - Smart Grids application
Graduation project - Edoardo Costa - TU Delft - Shifft
6. ASSIGNMENT what has to be achieved
DEFINE STRATEGIES AND SOLUTIONS FOR “OUTofGRID” CONSUMERS IN ORDER TO STIMULATE NEW BEHAVIOR FOR HOME ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN RELATION TO ENERGY AFFORDABILITY, CONSIDERING REAL FUTURE SCENARIOS OF SMART GRID APPLICATION
ENERGY OF THE FUTURE - Smart Grids application
Graduation project - Edoardo Costa - TU Delft - Shifft
7. METHODOLOGY how accomplishing the assignment 4. TEST FINAL SCENARIOS WITH USERS
1. ANALYSIS LITERATURE SUPPORT
EXPLAIN
FINANCIAL TECHNOLOGICAL SCENARIOS
UNDERSTAND EXPERIENCE INTERPRET & LIVE
3. CREATE FINAL SCENARIOS IMPLEMENT FUTURE FINANCIAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL SCENARIOS WITH USER’S FACTORS: MAKE THEM ALIVE AND EXPERIENCABLE
FEEDBACK ALTERNATIVES SOLUTIONS POSSIBILITIES
2. USER RESEARCH DIRECT OBSERV
WHAT USERS REALLY DO
INTERVIEWS
5. DESIGN REQUIREMENTS REAL USER’S LIMITS MOTIVATIONS
TECHNO/FINANCIAL/USER LIMITS AND BOUNDARIES FOR FUTURE ENERGY MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE AND BEHAVIOR
WHY THEY DO WHAT THEY DO
7. FINAL TEST AND EVALUATION FINAL USER TEST TO EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE DESIGN SOLUTIONS PROPOSED
ENERGY OF THE FUTURE - Smart Grids application
6. CONCEPTS DESIGN OF SOLUTIONS OF PRODUCT/SERVICE THAT FIT THE FINAL SCENARIOS
Graduation project - Edoardo Costa - TU Delft - Shifft
8. USER RESEARCH observation/interview/scenario testing ACTIONS DECISIONS WHY
DISCOVER REAL USER’S SITUATION
