Do you work on data and innovation in the energy domain? Join the DEMAND Community Event on Tuesday, 19 May 2026. Together with Alliander, we are bringing researchers, professionals, and partners together during Arnhem Electricity Week.
Het event vindt plaats op Bellevue in Arnhem, een locatie van Alliander. Deze middag staat volledig in het teken van Energy Data Spaces: hoe delen we data tussen verschillende partijen, hoe benutten we die slim en hoe organiseren we samenwerking rond data in het energiedomein?
The energy transition requires collaboration. That is precisely why sharing and using data is essential. During this community event, we will explore these issues from different perspectives.
Je kunt rekenen op inspirerende bijdragen van onderzoekers en professionals uit het veld.
After the program, there will be an opportunity to continue talking during a networking reception.

Trung Nguyen – NegoFlex: Agent-Based Negotiation for Building Energy Flexibilityn
NegoFlex, a framework where commercial buildings negotiate energy flexibility offers with congestion service providers. Using BEMS envelope data and forecast uncertainty, buildings compute reliable flexibility offers through a structured multi-round protocol. I will present simulation results comparing three pricing strategies across different market conditions and discuss how we are advancing this from a research paper to a real-world pilot with AIMZ in the AiNed FlexLab project.
