摘要：

Amidst the recent energy crisis, the pivotal roles of resource efficiency and renewable energy sources (RES) for sustainable development have become apparent. The transition to sustainability involves decentralized energy solutions empowering local communities to generate, store, and utilize their energy, diminishing the reliance on centralized systems and potentially transforming them into resources for power flexibility. Addressing the above necessitates, amongst other elements, the adoption of advanced demand-side management (DSM) strategies. In response, we introduce a versatile algorithm investigating the impact of DSM on the community scale, designed to maximize the utilization of renewable energy produced from local installations. Integrated as an ancillary module in a research data management platform, the algorithm underwent testing using historical datasets collected from end-consumers and a small-scale RES installation. This study not only offers insights for energy stakeholders, but also establishes theoretical parameters that can inform subsequent decision-making processes in the field.
