This paper presents optimal dispatch strategy of cogeneration with thermal energy storage (TES) for building energy management system (BEMS). In previous research related to cogeneration as a supply system, it is observed that there is some excessive heat from cogeneration operation released to the atmosphere. In order to improve energy efficiency, we therefore incorporate TES to utilize the excessive heat from cogeneration into two objective functions, i.e., total operating cost (TOC) and total carbon dioxide emission (TCOE). In particular, we aim to minimize TOC which is referred to economic optimal operation and to minimize TCOE which is referred to environmental optimal operation. Both optimal operations are subjected to energy dispatch strategy which TES constraint is taken into account. We demonstrate the dispatch strategy with a load profile of a large shopping mall as a test system and compare the results to that of previous dispatch of cogeneration without TES. The proposed strategy of cogeneration with TES can reduce TOC of the test system up to 4.15% and 1.85% for economic and environmental optimal operations, respectively. Furthermore, TCOE can be reduced up to 5.25% and 6.25% for economic and environmental optimal operations, respectively.

The coordination of energy carriers in energy systems has significant benefits in enhancing the flexibility, efficiency, and sustainability characteristics of energy networks. These benefits are of great importance for multi-carrier energy networks due to the complexity of obtaining optimal dispatch, considering the non-convex nature of their energy conversion. The current study proposes a robust operation model for the coordination of multi-carrier systems, including electricity, gas, heat, and water carriers concerning thermal energy storage technology. Thermal energy storage is for storing extra heat generated by combined heat and power (CHP) plants and boilers in time intervals with low heat demand on the system and discharging it when required. Energy network operators should have the capability to manage uncertain energy loads to study the impact of load variation on the decision-making process in network operation. Accordingly, this study employs an information gap decision theory (IGDT) method to model the uncertainty of the power demand in optimal system operation. By applying the IGDT approach, the operator of the energy system can use the appropriate methodology to obtain a robust optimal operation. Such a modeling approach helps the operator to make suitable decisions about probable variations in power load. The introduced model is applied in a test system for evaluating the performance and effectiveness of the introduced scheme.

The massive integration of variable renewable energy (VRE) in modern power systems is imposing several challenges; one of them is the increased need for balancing services. Coping with the high variability of the future generation mix with incredible high shares of VER, the power system requires developing and enabling sources of flexibility. This paper proposes and demonstrates a single layer control system for coordinating the steady-state operation of battery energy storage system (BESS) and wind power plants via multi-terminal high voltage direct current (HVDC). The proposed coordinated controller is a single layer controller on the top of the power converter-based technologies. Specifically, the coordinated controller uses the capabilities of the distributed battery energy storage systems (BESS) to store electricity when a logic function is fulfilled. The proposed approach has been implemented considering a control logic based on the power flow in the DC undersea cables and coordinated to charging distributed-BESS assets. The implemented coordinated controller has been tested using numerical simulations in a modified version of the classical IEEE 14-bus test system, including tree-HVDC converter stations. A 24-h (1-min resolution) quasi-dynamic simulation was used to demonstrate the suitability of the proposed coordinated control. The controller demonstrated the capacity of fulfilling the defined control logic. Finally, the instantaneous flexibility power was calculated, demonstrating the suitability of the proposed coordinated controller to provide flexibility and decreased requirements for balancing power.

In this paper, a novel dynamic programming technique is presented for optimal operation of a typical renewable microgrid including battery energy storage. The main idea is to use the scenarios analysis technique to proceed the uncertainties related to the available output power of wind and photovoltaic units and dynamic programming technique to obtain the optimal control strategy for a renewable microgrid system in a finite time period. First, to properly model the system, a mathematical model including power losses of the renewable microgrid is established, where the uncertainties due to the fluctuating generation from renewable energy sources are considered. Next, considering the dynamic power constraints of the battery, a new performance index function is established, where the Lagrange multipliers and interior point method will be presented for the equality and inequality operation constraints. Then, a feedback control scheme based on the dynamic programming is proposed to solve the model and obtain the optimal solution. Finally, simulation and comparison results are given to illustrate the performance of the presented method.

In this paper, a day-ahead profit-maximizing energy management scheme for a grid-tied microgrid operation is proposed. The microgrid contains various types of distributed energy resources (DERs) and an inverter-interfaced battery-bank storage system. The average of day-ahead hourly forecasted data for loads, wind speed, and solar radiation are inputted into the framework of energy management (EMF). To optimize the microgrid performance, EMF determines the hourly dispatch of reactive and active power for each DER. Also, it specifies the discharging and charging times of the energy storage system and the onload tap changer position setting of the transformer connected to the main grid. The main aim is to maximize the revenue of microgrid meeting all technical limitations. The main grid can sell/buy reactive and active powers to/from the microgrid with a variable daily energy price of the market. A collective rule base-BAT algorithm is implemented as a solver of the energy management optimization problem for a grid-tided microgrid. Furthermore, the ability of the suggested EMF is proved in comparison with recent approaches.
