Abstract
The distributed cooperative heat supply system (DCHSS), a cluster of heat supply appliances decentrally installed to the consumer side and centrally controlled by energy companies or aggregators, can be a means for absorbing the output fluctuation of renewable electricity. The DCHSS can contribute to both the penetration of renewable power plants and decarbonation of heat supply systems without district heating networks. The system appears especially well suited to Japan’s north region, which has substantial wind energy potential and heat demand in winter.
