Business Model to the LASSE performance at Microgrid environment   W. Polini2, R. C. Lotero2, and R. B. Otto   2019/07/15

Abstract

The Microgrid (MG) scenario has a socioeconomicand technical character seeking to promote the sustainable, technological and economic advance. Through the MG, the consumer may set up its own business with a the sale of its own energy, thus, the Automation and Electrical Systems Simulation Laboratory (LASSE) is interested in participating of the MG market. Creating and/or innovating a business requires knowledge of the application environment. This reality has as consequence the determination of strategies for the company’s management in the vision of the market dynamics. This research aims to define the necessary requirements for the performance of LASSE in the MG environment and to develop the systemic LASSE diagram associating the structural elements of the business model with the characteristics of LASSE. The information was generated through the Business Model Generation (BMG) methodology, among which the Business Model Canvas tools stand out. The research interests LASSE for creating ideological guidelines for members of the LASSE Smart Energy Project. In this way, it is possible to clearly understand the process of introduction to the MG environment, as well as the necessary characteristics for the elaboration of Business Models (BM).
