Use of renewable energy sources is enforced by national and international regulations.
Drivers for such policies include mitigation of climate change due to emission of
greenhouse gasses and reducing dependency on fossil fuel reserves. Due to the
intermittent character of renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic or wind power,
integration of such sources creates a challenge in maintaining balance between demand
and supply. Indications of such challenges in countries with e.g. a high penetration of
wind power are already showing in prices on power exchanges reaching zero or negative
energy prices. In general, without mitigation measures, an increase in the use of
intermittent renewable energy sources leads to a diminished ability to guarantee security
of supply.

The aim of the MIRABEL project is to exploit potential flexibility in both demand for and
generation of electricity to compensate for the intermittent nature of Renewable Energy
Sources (RES). For instance by postponing certain electricity demand until energy from a
RES (e.g. solar panel) becomes available.
In order to leverage flexibility in demand and generation means for expressing and
communicating this flexibility are needed. For this purpose, this MIRABEL deliverable
provides a data model. This document contains the final version of the data model, a
previous version of the data model was presented in deliverable D2.2 which was
published in December 2010.
