Market transformation: energy is decarbonizing & electrifying

New clean technologies are transforming energy grids from a top-down broadcast model to an interactive system

Challenge: old structures do not support new markets

Lack of data coordination and price transparency leads to an expensive and inefficient system

Fragmented Data

- Low asset visibility &

inclusion

- Siloed data

- Excluded capacity

Community energy and smart grids:Testing the potential of blockchain technologies

REPOWERING is a Community Benefit Society

We specialise in co-producing community-owned renewable energy projects

Our vision is to create resilient, empowered communities that control and

own the generation and usage of renewable energy.

Introduction

• “Community energy” is a movement to redefine the relationship between energy users and the wider energy system

• Through local mobilisation and crowdfunding, communities have begun to develop, own and operate energy infrastructure

• The current market structure remains heavily centralised and reliant on pre-digital technologies

• It is time for change- community energy provides an opportunity to innovate while creating a fairer energy future

Since 2010 we have helped develop over 230kW of rooftop

solar on block of flats like Elmore House on the

Loughborough Estate in south London

However unlike rooftop solar on houses, the residents are

unable to use the electricity being generated above their

heads to reduce their electricity bills

Repowering are working with a number of community

groups to test ways of giving residents a fair share of the

energy produced by the solar installations on their flats

CommUNITY concept

• The project is one of 2 that have been officially accepted in Ofgem’s ‘sandbox’

• New meters, ICT and battery storage systems will be installed

• Residents will be able to opt in to be supplied by the electricity generated on-site

• Solar generation and residential demand will be managed to maximise self consumption

• Solar electricity will be priced below imported grid electricity

Virtualisation via distributed ledger technologies….

Site description• Brixton, London Borough of Lambeth

• Landlord system: communal lighting and one lift

• Apartments: 62 two-bed properties, pre-pay meters, gas central heating and electric immersion heaters

• Generation: 37kWp PV roof plant supplying landlord load, >90% of power produced is fed back into the distribution grid

Social benefits

• Residents are projected to save 10-20% on their electricity costs

• Income to the community cooperative that owns the solar generation will also increase

• Legacy=

1. A viable model for community energy in multi occupancy buildings

2. Rewiring the relationship between energy producers and consumers

3. Sustainable pathway for low carbon generation in urban areas
