Resource / link	enabling new Demand Response Advanced, Market oriented and secure technologies, solutions and business models (eDREAM) https://edream-h2020.eu
Location, Description of intervention/project	Italy, Greece, UK
Geographical scale of the project	Micro-grid, Lab, DERS, Asset Management and DR network planning
Background information	The eDREAM project developed new solutions for DSOs, as well as improving decision-making of aggregators and energy retailers using a new decentralized and community-driven energy ecosystem by fully integrating the micro-grid and VPPs (Virtual Power Plants) to local power disruption network.
Objectives defined	DSOs: Reduction of overload, New energy services business models, Improved power losses prediction, Enhanced control of the power grid operation. Aggregators: Supply-demand matching and decentralized coodinated control, VPP flexibility profiling and customer segmentation, Increased forecast capability. Prosumers: Direct energy trading in a blockchain-based decentralized marketplace, Financial revenues from energy generating and demand response.
Metrics used	Demand Response in electricity, power, economy and social impact; Power Supply and Distribution System Evaluation Metrics; Flexibility and Balancing System Evaluation Metrics; Transmission System Evaluation Metrics; Renewable Energy Usage Evaluation Metrics; Emissions Evaluation Metrics; Digitalization Evaluation Metrics.
Diversity dimension and findings	N/A
Result summary	Local flexibility marketplaces, tailored specifically to DSOs and aggregators stakeholders. Local peer to peer energy marketplaces tailored to prosumers and aggregators. VPP optimization framework through dynamic coalitions, tailored to aggregators.
Input for DivAirCity and action items	Blockchain technology implemented in peer-to-peer energy trading and Marketplace design
