iFLEX
Project Overview
Intelligent Assistants for Flexibility Management.
Consumer response is a crucial factor for the economy. It allows consumers to influence prices through demand and thus lower or increase them, and is based on the needs, wants and economic capabilities of the public. It is also especially important for the energy sector. Unfortunately, consumer response and demand response cannot easily influence demand for the energy sector. The EU-funded iFLEX project aims to change this, not only by making it easier for consumers to participate in demand response but also by increasing its reach and effect. It plans to achieve this by developing an innovative software agent that allows for better management of energy and demand response by acting between energy systems and various stakeholders.
Intracom Telecom Participation
In this project Intracom Telecom is responsible for implementing a flexibility aggregation and management solution incorporating customizable incentive and aggregation mechanisms and data-efficient deep learning methods for modelling and optimization of consumer flexibility management. It also focuses on mechanisms for user engagement with natural user experience and incentives.
