color="#c93e1f">EU-DEEP </font></strong>consortium is in a position to detail the conditions under which all players will be able to cope with the growing demand for DER units. Firstly, the project has identified the current “hosting capacity” of the electrical power system and the conditions that will enable this to be increased at an acceptable cost. Following this, an in-depth economic analysis of DER reveals that they can provide significant added value for the electrical system when they comply with network design constraints and contribute, in a reliable way, to better management of peak consumption. Using three aggregation business models extensively tested in the field, the project highlights the most promising directions to take from now on, to ensure efficient and sustainable integration of DER in the current electrical power system. Thus, the results of the <strong><font color="#c93e1f">EU-DEEP Project </font></strong>pave the way for the achievement of the 20-20-20 targets and contribute to enhancing different stakeholders’ practices, whilst pinpointing the new areas of knowledge required in order to keep expanding on DER integration.</p> <table bgcolor="#e2e3bc" border="0" cellpaddin="3"> <tbody> <tr> <td> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111214074057/http://www.eudeep.com/index.php?id=623" target="_blank">For further information visit the RESULTS section of the project website. </a></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>  </p> <p> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20111214074057/http://www.eudeep.com/index.php?id=623" target="_blank"></a></p> <p></p> <div>  </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>  <div class="clear"></div> </div> </div>  <div id="footer"> <p> Copyright © 2011 - SmartGrids - European Technology Platform.
