2. InduStore project
• How to leverage the flexibility of industrial sites in terms of electricity
demand and auto-production in order to
– Reduce their energy bill
– Reduce the risks of power blackout
– Allow to increase renewable share in energy mix ?
• Multidisciplinary project linking N-SIDE (consulting firm in advanced analytics),
UCL, ULg and ICEDD (institut de conseil et d’études en développement durable)
• Funding by the walloon region under the program Energinsere (energy storage)
• Studies about the flexibility potential of industrial sites in Wallonia, taking into
account technical and social factors
• New developments integrated in ENERTOP, operational and strategic software
for energy optimisation, commercialized by N-SIDE

3. Flexibility challenge in Electricity Supply/
Demand balancing
• Renewable energy sources add
unpredictability in electricity supply
– Increase volatility in electricity price
– Need for more flexibility in supply/
demand balancing
• Increase flexibility on supply-side is
challenging
– Decreasing profitability of flexible
peaking plant with increase of
renewable
– No mature technology for electricity
storage on a large scale
– Constraints on transmission/
distribution network

4. What if (part of) the solution lies in
Industrial sites ?
Industrial Sites can be seen as a key source of flexibility and energy storage:

7. InduStore presents many Socio-Economic
and Environmental benefits
Socio-­‐Economic
Benefits
Environmental
Benefits
• Increase competitiveness of
industrial sites in Wallonia by
reducing their energy bill and
therefore secure more industrial
jobs
• Make the supply/demand
balancing easier and therefore
reduce the risk of power
blackout
• Generate skilled jobs (IT,
Modelization) to implement and
start new energy optimization
system and technical jobs to
operate system after
implementation
• Allow to increase share of
renewable generation in
energy mix
• Smooth demand curve and
therefore reduce the use of
polluting electricity
peaking power plants
• Reduce coproducts flaring
thanks to a better use of
cogeneration capacities
