Prospective analysis of multi-energy flexibility solutions

Project managers : Nadia Maïzi, Sophie Demassey and Edi Assoumou
 

Rémy Doudard began a doctoral thesis in October 2015, in partnership with GRTgaz and directed by Nadia Maïzi and Edi Assoumou. The aim of this research is to evaluate the impact of flexibility solutions (power-to-gas, power-to-heat, demand response, storage) over the long term, taking a prospective approach combined with its optimal paradigm, in order to make appraisals and choices regarding the efficiency of the proposed solutions. The focus will be on the role that natural gas plays in the flexibility of the energy system. GRTgaz is currently involved in several pilot projects involving natural gas and hydrogen.
