HYSTORE Deliverable 1.2 KPI analysis of technologies and pilots’operations

The main objective of this task is to provide quantitative measurement of the performances of the HYSTORE technologies and combined systems during their operational phase. The KPI panel will include indicators to consider the two levels of integration provided by the project’s tools: the integration with existing grid/utilities and the integration at end-user level with specific parameter ad-hoc developed. The different KPIs to be proposed will deal with the following aspects: energy characteristics (power capacity, storage capacities, etc.), energy efficiency (instantaneous and integrated energy yield, primary energy consumption, self-consumption, and self-sufficiency, etc.), cost efficiency (e.g., energy bill cost, investment, maintenance costs, ROI, LCOE, etc.), impact on electric and thermal networks (e.g., contemporaneity demandgeneration), spatial efficiency (Compactness, spatial constraints), impact on comfort (conditions of use and maintenance, thermal comfort impact characterization), environmental impact (life cycle considerations, share of renewable energy, CO2eq emission, embodied energy, etc.), robustness, reliability, autonomy. A complete list of KPIs will be provided together with the set of equations needed for their calculation and to include in the HYSTORE platform. All the KPIs will be used for benchmarking during lab-testing of the solutions in WP3/WP4 and for the demonstration activities in WP6.
