Abstract

Smart grid technologies are a catalyst for the modernisation of the electrical system whilst satisfying all electrical power stakeholders. The application of intelligent systems results in more flexibility and reliability. This paper presents a dynamic energy management system for a microgrid connected to a grid for residential application. The system models a smart metering system to collect data from different components of the electrical system. A grid-tied photovoltaic and energy storage system model is optimally designed. The model uses the framework of a smart grid based on demand response and energy pricing to coordinate the energy flow of a home. Three optimal control scenarios are formulated, where the opportunity energy is considered to be injected to the main grid. These scenarios are two linear methods (open and closed-loop models) and a quadratic approach based on model predictive control. It was observed that the energy storage system plays an essential role in the context of energy-saving and gain from the demand side. The models provide benefits in terms of energy-saving and energy cost. The performance of dynamic modelling is validated with the experimental data from the smart metering system.
