| description | Summary: A novel value sharing (VS) method is proposed that distributes the energy communities (ECs) value based on the individual contribution to the total surplus/deficit. It considers the load-generation profile of each EC member and allocates a higher share to members who contribute to the EC revenue. The lowest share is received by the members with the highest demand that has to be supplied from the shared generation or from the grid, contributing to the EC cost. Several allocation methods are compared using the fairness index (FI), and, for setting the strategy of the EC using a decision model, as the strategy may vary over time, an objective function is defined as a combination between FI and self-sufficiency index using weighting coefficients. The methodology is implemented as an algorithm that automatically calculates and distributes the gain. For the proposed VS method, the FI is between 0.81 and 1. |
