Abstract:
An essential part of the energy systems design procedure is simulation, since it serves as a tool for verification of the respective design. It serves the verifying of a stable operation of developed energy systems infrastructure, before it comes to the realization. As energy systems integration becomes an important part in a low carbon energy scenario in the future, the cooperation of experts specialized in various domains crucial to single aspects of the energy system is indispensable. Cosimulation, yet, enables the modelling in the familiar environment of the experts, but requires a detailed coordination of the simulation interfaces between the specific expert models. Hence, standardized interfaces are crucial to the efficient use of expert knowledge in distributed co-simulations. Therefore, in the presented paper a workflow for the co-simulation development of energy systems simulations, which simplifies the coordination procedure significantly by standardizing the interfaces between the models and their simulations, is introduced. The approach is exemplarily applied to the energy system design of a district comprising electricity and heat in order to show its successful performance.
