PV systems, wall boxes, and heat pumps are now part of everyday life in many households—the energy transition is increasingly becoming part of normal life. Digital processes and software agents are taking on the task of coordinating production, storage, and consumption automatically and proactively – not only in private households, but also at the neighborhood and grid levels. They are reining in the growing complexity of a renewable energy system and acting as mediators between sometimes conflicting interests: individual, economic, ecological, or system-related.
For these digital systems to work not only efficiently but also in a socially acceptable manner, one thing is needed above all else: trust. When decisions are made automatically, people want to be able to understand what they are based on – and whose interests they represent. The systems themselves must also trust each other in order to interact efficiently.
This is also reflected in the innovative interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach of the research platform: as in other TEN.efzn projects, technical and scientific energy research is intertwined with sociological transformation research. In addition, the project deliberately goes beyond fundamental research to include practical implementation and knowledge transfer. The goal is to develop a comprehensive trust model that involves future users from the very beginning and serves as the basis for an autonomous, highly scalable, secure, and resilient energy system.
