Abstract
The support of decentralized energy resources under the Fit for 55 package and the REPowerEU plan places distribution grid users and distribution system operators (DSOs) at the center of the future European energy system. Also, the interaction between both types of agents is gaining importance for two reasons. First, DSOs face challenges connecting these new grid users to their network, leading to an increased need for grid investments and congestion management measures. Second, engaging these new grid users can bring opportunities for DSOs to manage their network and its possible congestion more efficiently.
Fit for 55一揽子计划和REPowerEU计划对分散能源资源的支持将配电网用户和配电系统运营商(DSO)置于未来欧洲能源系统的中心。此外,由于两个原因,这两种类型的代理之间的相互作用越来越重要。首先,DSO面临着将这些新的电网用户连接到其网络的挑战,导致对电网投资和拥堵管理措施的需求增加。其次,吸引这些新的电网用户可以为DSO带来更有效地管理其网络及其可能的拥塞的机会。
