DESCRIPTION:Distributed Energy Resources (DER) are becoming widespread in m
 ost countries worldwide. In particular\, at the household level rooftop so
 lar photovoltaics and battery energy storage systems\, and soon electric v
 ehicles too\, are poised to play an essential role towards power system de
 carbonisation and more consumer-centric markets. Local energy systems with
  shared assets such as community storage are also emerging as important op
 tions of interest. Key ongoing debates now refer to how different DER tech
 nologies and schemes should be fully integrated into power and energy syst
 em and market operation.\n\nIn this IEEE Power and Energy Society Distingu
 ished Lecture\, we will present fundamental techno-economic aspects of key
  aggregation approaches that could enable large-scale deployment of DER\, 
 namely\, virtual power plants\, energy communities\, and microgrids. More 
 specifically\, we will discuss the key features of these different aggrega
 tion models (“what”)\, under which conditions each of them should/coul
 d be considered (“where”)\, and potential technical and commercial opp
 ortunities and challenges for different stakeholders involved with DER dev
 elopment\, e.g.\, aggregators\, energy managers\, distribution system oper
 ators\, and so forth (“who”). Several case studies from a number of re
 cent projects in Australia\, UK\, Europe\, Malaysia and Chile will be used
  to exemplify the concepts presented.\n\nSpeaker(s): Pierluigi Mancarella\
