Abstract
This work presents an approach to the flexibility of energy consumption in Renewable Energy Communities (RECs). A two-stage model for quantifying the flexibility provided by the domestic energy resources operation and its negotiation in a market platform is proposed. In stage 1, the optimal consumption of each prosumer is determined, as well as the respective technical flexibility of their resources, namely the maximum and minimum resource operation limits. In stage 2, this technical flexibility is offered in a local flexibility-only market structure, in which both the DSO and the prosumers can present their flexibility needs and requirements. The flexibility selling and buying bids of the prosumers participating in the market are priced based on their base tariff, which is the energy cost of the prosumers corresponding to their optimal schedule of the first stage when no flexibility is provided. Therefore, providing flexibility is an incentive to reduce their energy bill or increase their utility, encouraging their participation in the local flexibility market.

Abstract
This work performs a comparative analysis of battery energy storage system (BESS) participation in the multi-services electricity market, considering the optimal operating cost and better profitability for the BESS portfolios. A comparison of the application of these portfolios in different market conditions is proposed: (i) energy-only market, (ii) reserve-only market, (iii) sequential energy and reserve market, and (vi) joint energy and reserve market. For each BESS portfolio, hourly strategies for buying and selling offers are proposed, to maximize the revenue, accounting for the expected load and generation variations in the grid. The analysis of the BESS strategies is carried out through a case study based on actual generation data, where operating costs and BESS flexibility are assessed. One conclusion is that, even though, BESS makes a profit by participating in single markets, the best strategy is to participate in both energy and reserve markets, especially in the presence of a joint energy and reserve market model.
