DELTA ontology
Alba Fernández Izquierdo
This ontology represents the terms to allow interoperability in DELTA project. It models concepts related to enery market, smart grids and demand-response platforms, and it will reuse standard ontologies whenever possible.

type
Legal entities that aggregate the load or generation of various demand and/or generation/production units and aim at optimizing energy supply and consumption.
Aggregator
Bid that is estimated by the aggregator
Bid
Entity that consumes energy
Consumer
Customer
Entity that interacts in the platform
Device that is located in a specific place
Device
A property related to measurements that are characterized by a value measured in energy units
Energy
Energy market
Flexibility is a property that indicates the ability to increase or reduce the production of power plants or the consumption of demand processes
Flexibility
Bid related to energy flexibility
Flexibility bid
A property related to measurements that are characterized by a value measured in generation units. It represents the energy produced.
Generation
Incentive (usually monetary) associated to energy values
Incentive
A property related to measurements that are characterized by a value measured in energy units. It represents the load needed for a device to init
Load
A property related to measurements that are characterized by a value measured in power units
Power
Bid related to price
Price bid
Price bid for ancillary services
Price bid AS
Bid price for the next day
Price bid day ahead
Price bid for the day
Price bid intra-day
A specification associated to a DVN or a device to collect information about properties
Profile
Profit
Property
Entity that consumes or produces energy
Prosumer
Reward associated to the customers that is given after using the engagement tools
Reward
Interval of time that indicates the active time of a bid or profile
Time interval
An aggregated, virtual cluster of prosumers which will be perceived and acted upon as a single, large prosumer entity by the Aggregator. Prosumers entailed into each Virtual Node will have common characteristics, defined by their corresponding Aggregator.
Virtual node
A tangible object designed to accomplish a particular task in households, common public buildings or offices. In order to accomplish this task, the device performs one or more functions. For example, a washing machine is designed to wash (task) and to accomplish this task it performs a start and stop function. Devices can be structured in categories (subclasses) that reflect the different domain in which a device is used, e.g., smart appliances domain (subclass FunctionRelated) vs. building domain (subclass BuildingRelated) vs. smart grid domain (subclass EnergyRelated). New categories can be defined,if needed, to reflect other differences, for example different points of view, such as the point of view of the device's user vs. the point of view of the device's manufacturer. We propose a list of devices that are relevant for the purpose of SAREF, but this list can be extended.
