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)

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

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
