In another study, the demand response potential of WWTPs is modelled by integrating the process models (simulating the operational details in wastewater treatment processes) and energy systems models (simulating energy systems for minimising operating costs) .
It has been suggested in that small decentralised generation units should be used such as wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) to introduce flexibility in supply in a renewable electricity grid.
Either metric is acceptable for tracking energy performance over time, but wastewater treatment plant operators should be familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of both. The advantage of using BOD as the denominator is that it appears to be more directly tied to the primary driver of energy consumption in the plant.
Wastewater treatment plants have the potential to provide electricity demand and generation flexibility. A novel approach of utilising the energetic flexibility in wastewater treatment plants to optimize the installed capacity of a fully renewable electricity grid in Australia is presented.
