    Energy Transition, Distributed Energy Resources, and Flexibility Services: A Systematic Literature Review
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2026) García-Rendón, John; Mosquera-López, Stephania; Universidad EAFIT; Orkestra Energy
    The Paris Agreement's worldwide pledge to keep global warming to 1.5°C has sped up the energy transition, and with this, the deployment of renewable energy sources, increasing the demand for electrical systems' flexibility. To investigate the role of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in providing flexibility services that support the integration of non-conventional renewable energy (NCRE), this study performs a systematic literature review using the PRISMA approach. DERs enable decentralized, smart grid-based energy models that complement conventional centralized systems. According to the review, which examines 697 papers published between 2010 and February 2024, research has grown exponentially since 2015, especially in Europe. The study examines the functions of emerging agents, such as prosumers, aggregators, and Distribution System Operators (DSOs), and highlights important flexibility services, such as frequency regulation, voltage control, and congestion management, using bibliometric and content analysis. The results show that although DERs greatly improve grid resilience and the integration of renewable energy sources, several institutional, economic, technological, and social barriers prevent their complete implementation. New market mechanisms and regulatory frameworks that promote flexibility and active demand-side participation are needed to address these issues.

    Heuristic Optimization for the Energy Management and Race Strategy of a Solar Car
    (MDPI AG, 2017-10-01) Betancur E.; Osorio-Gómez G.; Rivera J.C.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Ciencias; Matemáticas y Aplicaciones
    Solar cars are known for their energy efficiency, and different races are designed to measure their performance under certain conditions. For these races, in addition to an efficient vehicle, a competition strategy is required to define the optimal speed, with the objective of finishing the race in the shortest possible time using the energy available. Two heuristic optimization methods are implemented to solve this problem, a convergence and performance comparison of both methods is presented. A computational model of the race is developed, including energy input, consumption and storage systems. Based on this model, the different optimization methods are tested on the optimization of the World Solar Challenge 2015 race strategy under two different environmental conditions. A suitable method for solar car racing strategy is developed with the vehicle specifications taken as an independent input to permit the simulation of different solar or electric vehicles.
