EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The aim of this document is to provide economical considerations to model the
devices involved in the management of the microgrid under study in project
DER-IREC22@Microgrid. The main devices considered are: wind microgenerator,
photovoltaic array generator, battery for energy storage, loads (3 different
types are considered: programmable, adjustable, and a mixture of the previous two),
electrical vehicles and the distribution network.
One of the challenges
of this project is to develop a control system to optimize the operation of the
microgrid according to technical and economical criteria. That means the
algorithms deployed will have to consider the economical behaviour of these
devices to find the best solution.
For each
device, the most relevant economic variables, such as ROI (return of
investement) related to the depreciation or operation and mantainance cost have
been identified. |
