D.3.1 Deployment plan specification

Executive Summary

Building upon the results of previously published studies within the scope of the REACT project and leaning mainly on Deliverable 1.3 Pilot specific demonstration scenarios, 2.2 RES/storage enabled infrastructure planning and 2.3 Techno- economic impact assessment.

This deliverable presents a technical deployment plan to be carried out throughout the three project pilot sites. REACT will be piloted on three demo islands: La Graciosa (Spain), San Pietro (Italy) and Aran Islands (Ireland). This document sets out the deployment specification for the necessary RES infrastructure, generation systems, energy storage systems, ICT and controls interfaces to provide optimal control and management strategies and demand response (DR) programs.

This deliverable started in November 2019 and will be finalized by June 2020.

In order to define which materials are to the installed in each of the three pilots it had to be taken under consideration the different laws and regulation in country.

In La Graciosa it has been decided to install Victron Equipment’s since they comply with the local regulation in regard with grid connections and due to equipment efficiency. In total there will be 17 of these installations, the project plan is been prepared to be submitted to the local government.

In Italy the regulation states that the self-consumption with storage the inverter and the battery should be legalized together. The legalization process for MIDAC batteries is ongoing.

In Aran 4 public buildings have been selected where the SMA technology will be installed, with PV grid inverters and battery inverter.
