Enhancing Energy System Resilience through Hybrid Biomass Systems with Grid-Stress Traffic-Light Control

Short Introductive summary

This paper presents a modeling framework to analyze and enhance the resilience of district energy systems by integrating hybrid biomass–heat pump configurations with a grid-stress-based traffic-light flexibility control. The control scheme (green–yellow–red) is linked to an indicator of grid stress, repre-sented by the loading condition and power flow direction of the district transformer. When grid stress increases, the system progressively activates local flexibility from electrical and thermal assets, including electrical energy storage (EES) and thermal energy storage (TES). In red phases, import or export capabilities are restricted, and operation adapts to maintain supply and avoid transformer overloads. A scenario-based simulation approach is used to study different building categories and hybrid system configurations at hourly resolution.
