“…In the traditional electrical grid, power is generated in large, centralized plants and then transmitted to the end-user using one-directional flows [1]. The need to meet the challenges and targets regarding energy savings and environmental protection lead to an increase in interest in the use of technologies such as smart grids [2][3][4][5], distributed energy resources [6][7][8], as well as the need for the development of new management structures [9][10][11][12][13][14] for the resulting systems. In addition to generation units, distributed energy resources (DER) systems may also include storage and transmission capacities, as well as infrastructure for the connection and control of the use of all the installed technologies [15].…”

This work presents the development of a decision-making strategy for fulfilling the power and heat demands of small residential neighborhoods. The decision on the optimal operation of a microgrid is based on the model predictive control (MPC) rolling horizon. In the design of the residential microgrid, the new approach different technologies, such as photovoltaic (PV) arrays, micro-combined heat and power (micro-CHP) units, conventional boilers and heat and electricity storage tanks are considered. Moreover, electricity transfer between the microgrid components and the national grid are possible. The MPC problem is formulated as a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model. The proposed novel approach is applied to two case studies: one without electricity storage, and one integrated microgrid with electricity storage. The results show the benefits of considering the integrated microgrid, as well as the advantage of including electricity storage.
