WELCOME TO THE REINVENT PROJECT

REINVENT - MaRket dEsign INnoVation to support an integrated Belgian ENergy
sysTem


OVERVIEW

In 2030 and beyond, multiple energy carriers (electricity, gas, heat, green
molecules) will play a role in an interconnected energy system. Increased
electrification will support sector integration between end user segments. To
benefit maximally from the advantages of sector coupling, a fundamental
rethinking of market design, business models and financing models is needed.

 

The REINVENT project will support the following objectives with a combination of
R&D (Digital Twin for sector coupling for Belgium) and relevant real-life test
cases:

 * Define a unified and integrated vision on sector coupling for Belgium
 * Adaptations to market design to support sector coupling
 * Development of multi-carrier business models for both industrial and
   residential flexibility (focusing on energy communities)
 * Set of case studies/pilots that will calculate the feasibility of certain
   ‘sector coupling concepts’ or demonstrate specific multi-energy systems, both
   at the industrial and the built environment level.

 


OBJECTIVES

REINVENT has 9 main objectives:

 1. Define a unified and integrated vision on sector coupling for Belgium
 2. Support the network operators’ integrated multi-energy expansion planning
 3. Ensure an efficient, stable and secure operation of the grid while maximally
    exploiting the synergies brought by increased sector coupling and energy
    system integration, at a minimum cost
 4. Increase of industrial flexibility through efficient industry-aware
    integration in flexibility procurement mechanisms
 5. Support the uptake of multi-carrier and multi-sector energy communities as
    enablers for investments in flexible assets to support the grid
 6. Support the development of novel cross-sectoral services and business models
 7. Support investment decisions by private sector in multi-energy projects
 8. Support development of digital solutions that facilitate consumer engagement
 9. Ensure wide adoption of developed REINVENT solutions


PROJECT APPROACH

The REINVENT approach is based on 4 pillars and is a combination of 1)
conceptual analysis, 2) sound modelling, 3) proofing of concepts by relevant
test cases, and 3) an ambitious impact assessment and replication strategy.

The first pillar will analyse the role of different energy carriers (gas, power,
heat, green molecules,…) in the Belgian energy mix. This includes the impact on
infrastructure, market design and business models for different energy end user
groups. Based on discussions with project partners and relevant stakeholders,
different concepts for both supply-side and demand-side sector integration will
be proposed. In addition to the operational implications of sector integration,
the financial implications in terms of risk, return, and uncertainty will be
analyzed.

The second pillar will develop the REINVENT modelling and simulation . This
multi-sectoral simulation environment will capture the different dynamics of
different carriers in multiple timeframes, for multiple scenarios, for multiple
market design options, for multiple services, including different end-use
sectors and different layers of the physical networks and their interconnection.
Innovations modelled in REINVENT aim at the overarching goal of augmenting and
realizing the potential of sector coupling in providing key flexibility,
balancing, and adequacy services to the multi-energy system and the electric
grid.

The third pillar will look at a selection of reference test cases that represent
main use cases of sector coupling/integration. These applications will provide
real data that allow proofing of the developed models in the second pillar. In
addition, the models of the second pillar will provide necessary insights to the
test cases about the impact of the REINVENT solutions on the operational and
financial stability of the presented solution. The REINVENT test cases address
different carriers, end user segments and applications and are selected based on
the technologies and applications that will play a central role in a future
integrated system but still face barriers today that hinder their expected
breakthrough.

The fourth pillar will define a roadmap for improved sector coupling and sector
integration for Belgium. This includes an impact assessment of a wide roll-out
of the solutions for the Belgian energy system, in particular the implications
for security of supply and system balancing.


PROJECT STRUCTURE




CASE STUDIES

The REINVENT project will look at a selection of reference test cases that
represent main use cases of sector coupling/integration. These applications will
provide real data that allow proofing of the developed models. In addition, the
project activities will provide necessary insights to the test cases about the
impact of alternative market design and business model options on the
operational and financial stability of the case studies.
