Subject: Horst/Cazalet Discussion on Transactional Energy
Below is a discussion that Gale and I had on Transactional Energy that may be helpful to others. Edward G. Cazalet, Ph.D. 101 First Street, Suite 552 Los Altos, CA 94022 650-949-5274 cell: 408-621-2772 ed@cazalet.com www.cazalet.com -----Original Message----- From: Horst, Gale [mailto:ghorst@epri.com] Sent: Wednesday, April 14, 2010 8:23 AM To: ed@cazalet.com Subject: RE: Transactional Energy White Paper Draft 004.pdf Ed: A couple of thoughs I wanted to mention. I read this white paper and agree with the description and way the content was clearly presented. Your main diagram (figure 1) visualizes the concept well. I think the tie between what you called transactional energy and the REC-VEN concept is perhaps cloaser yet than what you indicated to the extent that you could refer to it as a related approach or even a supporting approach in lieu of an alternative approach. The intent of my white paper was not to limit the content to the vertical utility. In the coverage of my white paper by Jesse Berst, he quickly identifed it as a description of Transactional Energy. The examples in the REC-VEN paper related to devices and I wanted to pave the way to discussing how we can enable independent product development. However it also was intended to cover what you described as "large generator, distributed energy resource (DER), variable energy resource such as wind or solar, large industrial customer, home, electric vehicle, microgrid, energy trader, broker, exchange , aggregator, or system operator." ... and also ... "Transactions can occur between retail and wholesale markets and between wholesale markets. Transactional Energy equalizes the opportunity for every technology and every participant on the grid including participants within a microgrid." Perhaps "transctional energy" builds on the concept by adding the element of support for transactions involving price offers? (and perhsps other things as well?)
