Description
In electricity markets, network operators (Elering, Fingrid, etc.) have the obligation to maintain a balanced operation in the electricity system. For this solution, HUUM is looking for devices that can be used for consumption control, if necessary. At the moment, Huum does not have the technology to aggregate its own devices, which are high-power electric heaters, and bring consumption management to the market.
The aim of the project is to upgrade the control controllers of the HUUM heater heating system smartly and hardware-wise, so that they can be integrated with the consumption management platform on the market. In order to enter the market with the service, it is planned to upgrade the control controllers of the heating system of HUUM heaters and integrate them with the consumption management platform on the market. It is important to develop the controller, software and cloud communication in such a way that all switching works with no more than a second delay, while data collection works with a second interval. In order to participate in the consumption control market, the switching power must be at least 1MW. Since the capacities of HUUM heaters are large, approximately 150-200 heaters need to be integrated with the consumption management system to start the service.
