Gestion Optimisée des moyens de flexibilité, de stockage et de production des sites industriels
avec le sou*en de Partenariat
InduStore project
• How to leverage the flexibility of industrial sites in terms of electricity demand and auto-production in order to
– Reduce their energy bill – Reduce the risks of power blackout – Allow to increase renewable share in energy mix ?
• Multidisciplinary project linking N-SIDE (consulting firm in advanced analytics), UCL, ULg and ICEDD (institut de conseil et d’études en développement durable)
• Funding by the walloon region under the program Energinsere (energy storage) • Studies about the flexibility potential of industrial sites in Wallonia, taking into
account technical and social factors
• New developments integrated in ENERTOP, operational and strategic software for energy optimisation, commercialized by N-SIDE

Flexibility challenge in Electricity Supply/Demand balancing
• Renewable energy sources add
unpredictability in electricity supply – Increase volatility in electricity price – Need for more flexibility in supply/
demand balancing
• Increase flexibility on supply-side is challenging
– Decreasing profitability of flexible peaking plant with increase of renewable
– No mature technology for electricity storage on a large scale
– Constraints on transmission/distribution network

What if (part of) the solution lies in Industrial sites ?
Industrial Sites can be seen as a key source of flexibility and energy storage:

Flexibility in Energy Demand
Flexibility in Electricity auto-‐produc*on
General Principle Levers of Flexibility Advantages
Leverage flexibility in produc*on planning to move electricity needs to off-‐peak *me
Leverage flexibility in cogenera*on to produce electricity during peak *me
• Capacity to change produc*on rate
• Capacity to store finished or semi-‐finished products
• On-‐demand electricity auto-‐produc*on (e.g. cogenera*on)
• Capacity to store coproducts used for cogenera*on
• Buy electricity at cheaper price
• Provide flexibility services (demand-‐side) on balancing market
• Avoid to buy expensive electricity price during peak hours
• Provide flexibility services (supply-‐side) on balancing market

Industore aims to leverage flexibility of industrial sites to minimize total energy cost…
INDUSTORE 5
Leverage as much as possible flexibility sources in Industrial process…
…to minimize total energy cost
• Buy electricity only when it is cheap
• Produce electricity when expensive
• Sell (supply and demand) flexibility on balancing market

InduStore presents many Socio-Economic and Environmental benefits
• Increase competitiveness of industrial sites in Wallonia by reducing their energy bill and therefore secure more industrial jobs
• Make the supply/demand balancing easier and therefore reduce the risk of power blackout
• Generate skilled jobs (IT, Modelization) to implement and start new energy optimization system and technical jobs to operate system after implementation
INDUSTORE 7
Socio-‐Economic Benefits Environmental Benefits
• Allow to increase share of renewable generation in energy mix
• Smooth demand curve and therefore reduce the use of polluting electricity peaking power plants
• Reduce coproducts flaring thanks to a better use of cogeneration capacities
