UK Regulatory Sandbox Case Study: Banister House Evaluation
Regulatory Sandboxes Background o Concept derived from world of software development o Used in other countries - US o Allows new code to be tested in a ‘ring fenced setting, without affecting the operations and safety of the wider system’
UK – Energy Sector Ofgem introduced the Regulatory Sandbox in February 2017 Temporary flexibility from regulatory “The regulatory sandbox allows requirements Innovators to trial new products, Support to start Enabler of ups, local councils Innovation and community Services and business models organisations In a real world environment without Some of the usual rules applying” Project focused Advice
Case Study: Banister House
Companies Aim Distributed Ledger Caveats • Verv • Through digital platforms • The trial tests peer to • The solar panels such as distributed peer electricity trading currently receive the UK’s • Repowering London ledgers the trial hopes using the distributed feed in tariff subsidy • British Gas to: ledger platform • This pays for both solar • Powervault ( blockchain ) • Increase customer generation as well as for engagement with their electricity exported energy use • Energy from solar will be • The trial requires the traded on Verv’s • Maximise benefits of export tariff to be opted software platform local solar generation as out of, however, all well as solar asset post participants will be able FIT to opt back in at the end of it • Improve concerns of impact of DER on the grid
Assets: solar PV, storage, smart hubs, distributed ledger Excess solar PV generation used to lower residents electricity bills through blockchain enabled peer to peer electricity trading First UK physical peer to peer trading took place 2018

LITHUANIA : virtual net metering framework Dovile Almanyte Head of RES unit Ministry of energy
The long-term vision of renewable energy development By 2050 renewable energy will dominate in the sectors of electricity, heating and transport 2020 – up to 30% 2030 – up to 45% 2050 – up to 80% Part of renewable energy in the gross energy consumption
Key targets for prosumers 2020 2030 2050 Share of 2% 30% 50% prosumers 60 % of household consumers needs only 1 kW! Capacity Consumption Share,% 1 kW 1200 kWh 59,6% 847 3 kW 3600 kWh 21,0% 86 86 5 kW 6000 kWh 6% 7 10 kW 12000 kWh 0,5% 0 200 400 600 800 1000 Thous. Of consumers
Implementing the long-term vision of prosumer market from 2018.01.01 1 STEP: from 2018.07.01 2 STEP: Removal of regulatory restrictions and shorter procedures Long-term financing model for prosumers CURRENT STAGE from 2019.10.01 3 STEP: Regulatory framework for from 2020 STEP: prosumers in the multi-apartment 4 buildings Prosumers become a part of the electricity market
Breakthrough of prosumer market in recent years 1356 11,8 2 268 2017 2019 2017 2019 March March March March NUMBER OF CAPACITY OF PROSUMERS (MW) PROSUMERS
Step 1: Becoming a prosumer is quick and easy KW KWh KW+KWh SHORTER GRID PRICING – A PROCEDURES FLEXIBLE CHOICE • 5 times shorter connection 3 new ways for consumers to pay grid fee: procedures (from 105 to 21 • For amount (kWh) working days). • For capacity (kW) • 10 times less documentation • Binary (for kWh and kW) (from 30 to 3). • By the surplus of energy
Step 2: Record-breaking financing – starting in 2019 2019-2020 2018 2017 1,5 M 3,3 M 17 M < < 34 34 000 000 300 300 Ambitious goal for the The number of prosumers in 2017 number of prosumers in 2020
Step 3: New set of regulatory improvements for prosumers 1 2 Electricity production Flats in multi- and consumption areas apartment buildings can become can be geographically prosumers separated for prosumers 3 4 Removal of permits for Installations ’ capacity prosumers up to 30 increased from 100 kW KW (currently - 5KW ) iki 500 kW
Step 3: How does the virtual net metering works? 1 Electricity from solar power is producer other area than it is 3 The produced electricity in other consumed area is deducted from prosumer‘s bill 2 Infrastructure fee is charged for each KWh sent through the electricity network Law coming into power from 2019 m. October 1st
Individual approach: 3 types of prosumers 1 On site PV Grid pricing alternatives: • For amount (kWh) • PV developed on consumers property • For capacity (kW) • Binary (for kWh and kW) • Instant consumption • By the surplus of energy Virtual private PV 2 • PV developed in other private place - property rights (e.g.summerhouse) • No instant consumption- 100% grid fee 3 Virtual PV in solar garden • Solar garden developed by third parties. • Consumer owns part of the garden - property rights • No instant consumption- 100% grid fee
