Energy Flexibility and Digital Solutions for Sustainable Energy Systems

Organized by Pio Lombardi, Fraunhofer IFF

The transition towards 100% renewable energy sources presents significant challenges related to grid stability, energy flexibility, and system resilience. The growing electrification of heating, cooling, and mobility sectors increases energy demand peaks, requiring cost-intensive grid reinforcements and innovative flexibility mechanisms. To address these challenges, the integration of digital solutions, AI-driven forecasting, and decentralized energy management platforms is crucial. This special session will explore innovative approaches to energy system flexibility, highlighting advanced energy storage solutions, AI-based energy management, blockchain applications, and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies. It aims to bring together researchers, industry experts, and policymakers to discuss novel frameworks, market strategies, and real-world applications that enhance flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability.
