Caneva, S. in OpenAIREThe actual climate crisis generated by the global warming requires a strong civic participation to find a sustainable solution to overcome this critical time. The COP26, the UN climate conference, which took place last year in Glasgow, has the highest participation rate in COP´s history despite the global pandemic. The world was expecting more ambitious actions for a clean global energy transition to achieve the 1.5 degree-goal. It is now clear that this ambitious goal cannot be achieved only by political decisions. A strong civic participation is required to make sure that the global warming will not lead to an irreversible status of the climatic crisis characterized by climate events, which will make the life of human beings not more sustainable on this planet. Social innovations are the key to overcome this crisis and provide a sustainable solution to the mitigation of global warming towards the achievement of 1.5 degree-goal. Social innovations are defined as “New ideas (products, services and models) that simultaneously meet social needs (more effectively than alternatives) and create new social relationships or collaborations. In other words, they are innovations that are not only good for society but also enhance society’s capacity to act”. Source: Empowering people, driving change, Bureau of European Advisers (BEPA), Brussels (2011). In the renewable energy sector, social innovations are identified as the business models able to support the production of renewable energy and, at the same time, the cooperation among citizens. As common denominator they have the concept of “power of many” to highlight that, through the union of small contributions, it is possible to build projects having positive environmental, economic and social impacts. The business models implementing social innovation in the renewable energy sector are cooperatives, aggregators and crowdfunding platforms. The development of renewable energies and a greater civic participation will be the two pillars of the clean energy transition. Social innovations can combine these two fundamental aspects and lead to the energy democracy and, as consequence, to a mitigation of the global warming. This paper has been prepared in the framework of the European project SocialRES (Fig. 1), which has the aim to investigate the business models of social innovations in the renewable energy sector to provide the owners or managers of crowdfunding platforms and cooperatives and aggregators, named “the facilitators of energy democracy”, with new tools to further support the production of renewable energy and the participation of citizens. 8th World Conference on Photovoltaic Energy Conversion; 1486-1489

D. Schwabeneder in OpenAIREThe OrPHEuS project elaborates hybrid energy network control strategies for smart cities implementing novel cooperative approach for the optimal interactions between multiple energy grids. The OrPHEuS project aims at optimising the synergies between multiple energy grids by enabling simultaneous optimization for individual response requirements, energy efficiencies and energy savings as well as coupled operational, economic and social impacts. The project will investigate the implementation of the control strategies on specific use cases scenario in two demonstration sites located in the City of Skellefteå in Sweden and in the City of Ulm in Germany. The operational focus of the project is the cross-domain coupling of energy infrastructures in order to increase energy efficiency through energy transformation and grid coupling. In particular, the project researches scenarios for transition between energy resources and flexible infrastructures e.g. along Power-to-Heat processes. It investigates the balancing of fluctuating renewable energy generation against the flexibility in supply, demand and storage capacities within the power grid and via process coupling across energy networks. The project will look on technical as well as socio-economical aspects considered as multi-dimensional strategy framework. With respect to the hybrid energy characteristics, both demonstration sites are quite distinct. At the demonstration site in Sweden, the reduction of vertical production (driven unsustainable with fossil fuel) is in the centre of the targeted control strategies. Looking on the specifics of the Ulm testing site, the major issue is the balancing of the high penetration of solar generation under today’s operation with a pre-dominant operational challenge for PV control. The key focus is to define control strategies to increase the intake of the energy supply from PV on the roof generation into the grid while maximizing the benefits for the low voltage power grid. The 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition (EU PVSEC) in Amsterdam represented a unique opportunity to present information on the methodology adopted by the OrPHEuS Consortium to optimise the synergies between multiple energy grids. On the occasion of the EU PVSEC the OrPHEuS Consortium focused the project presentation on how to optimise the PV electricity production with the implementation of Information and Communication (ICT) devices at the Ulm demonstration site, the Test area in Einsingen, which presents an over production of the PV electricity of 230 MWh annually. The average annual electrical consumption is around 1000 MWh. 29th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 3587-3591

Paul Rowley in OpenAIREAbstractThe establishment of new photovoltaic (PV) markets in emerging economies represents a business development opportunity for expansion outside traditional energy markets. Appropriate assessment of PV market competitiveness is thus necessary in order to inform policy and regulatory development, and in order to manage risks related to investment. This paper presents an evaluation of PV energy competitiveness using a case study of the emerging residential PV market in South Africa. Competitiveness is defined in light of the risks associated with the financial performance of domestic grid‐connected rooftop PV considering the current market status together with three proposed business models, namely net‐metering, net‐billing and an energy savings performance contract framework. Financial performance is evaluated in terms of a socket parity evaluation together with a discounted net cash flow analysis. Investment risk assessment was facilitated using a Monte Carlo simulation. The results indicate the highest potential profitability for the energy savings performance contract model, which includes PV system ownership by an energy services company. It is also shown that appropriate application of risk modelling has the potential to inform decisions by investors and policy makers alike that result in improved policy and business solutions that are able to support increased residential PV energy market competitiveness without the need for explicit subsidy frameworks.

S. Caneva in OpenAIRESocialRES aims at fostering energy democracy through social innovations defined as cooperatives, aggregators of renewable energy and crowdfunding platforms. The photovoltaic technology is one of the most promising technology in terms of social acceptance since it can be adapted to a variety of surfaces in buildings [1] and can offer a competitive source for the electricity supply almost everywhere nowadays [2]. PV is therefore often included among the technologies to be financed through energy cooperatives and crowdfunding campaigns. Moreover, as decentralized source of renewable electricity, it is utilized in Peer to Peer (P2P) virtual platforms implemented by aggregators as a concrete alternative to the traditional utilities based on power plants supplied by fossil fuels. Small - scale decentralised PV systems can be considered as the utilities of the future, when managed by aggregators as Virtual Power Plants (VPPs). They will therefore represent a fundamental piece in the path towards energy democracy. In order to make this sustainable future possible, having in mind the urgency generated by the climate change, a disrupted shift is needed in terms of implementation of social innovations for the energy sector. SocialRES aims to devise effective ways of increasing social innovation leading to greater social acceptability of renewable energy systems. This is done by a better understanding of support structures for successful social innovations in the renewable energy sector such as renewable energy cooperatives, aggregators and crowdfunding platforms. These businesses facilitate consumers to take an active role in the energy sector. Through research excellence and cocreation of knowledge, SocialRES will develop socially innovative and inclusive strategies for the energy system of the future. SocialRES will supplement the existing fragmented data on social innovations with new understandings from businesses, end-users and stakeholders to provide a comprehensive evidence base for policy design. Innovative techniques are employed such as a Peer to Peer (P2P) crowd-investing for renewable energy sources projects, P2P lending and P2P virtual photovoltaic electricity platforms for aggregators. Within the SocialRES project, an innovative P2P photovoltaic virtual platform will be developed as a pilot software application in off-line mode and will facilitate the understanding about existing barriers within current electricity markets and policies. Experience will be accumulated related to the main issues with the common access for energy trades between different actors on the market: prosumers, consumers, balancing responsible party and distributed photovoltaic generators. SocialRES is a research and innovation project funded by the European Commission. 37th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference and Exhibition; 2038-2041
