Several key advances are associated with the project
a database of demand profiles has been established that reflects
the different use sectors and the impact of energy efficiency measures.
a procedure
has been developed for the matching of NRE technologies to demand scenarios
and the assessment of these matches in terms of energy and power quality
metrics. This allows practitioner to identify and design suitable schemes,
and utility network managers to optimize these schemes in relation to
power quality impact
the bSmart procedure
has been applied within 3 real scale case studies, two of which achieved
actual implementations of NRE systems.
results of investigations
have shown the highest impact on power quality is not necessarily to
be anticipated at the highest generation levels or load demands
new knowledge
on small scale embedded generation concept has been disseminated to
utilities, local authorities and design practice and the embedded generation
concept has been promoted to the wider community
a novel PV integrated
ducted wind turbine has been constructed and deployed
If
every building in Glasgow had this technology just think how this could
save money and the environment.
