CoEnerBuild

Buildings’ virtual power plant towards carbon-neutral electricity and grid resilience

The primary goal of the CoEnerBuild project is to address contemporary energy challenges by designing a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) that aggregates geographically distributed buildings to act as a singular, highly efficient energy entity. The project focuses on developing a robust mathematical model and control software to regulate the energy flow within this Building VPP (BVPP), optimizing the use of renewable energy sources and storage systems.
