Demand Response of the future Swedish building stock
Research Project, 2014
– 2020
The aim of this project is to: 1. Develop a modeling methodology which can analyze how and to what extent the Swedish building stock can contribute to the transformation to a sustainable energy system considering measures both on the building side and the energy supply side. 2. To apply the methodology to investigate and define one or more development pathways for the Swedish building stock given goals on increased energy efficiency, renewable energy and reduced climate impact. Of special importance is to understand the role of the buildings as energy storage, demand response capabilities and as a platform for decentralized electricity generation and how this can interact with large scale integration of intermittent electricity generation (solar and wind). Thus, the aim is to understand how the potential role of the buildings as balancing capacity for electricity and heat. The project integrates analysis of the building side and the supply side, which is unique.
