Energy Management in Building Micro grid Peak Shaving in Utility With Peak Pricing Demand Response Scheme

Abstract

The rapid urbanization of Indian Villages has put the demand of energy in increasing trend and the peak demand is swelling high on the day to day basis. This paper discusses a solution for peak shaving which is based on the peak pricing demand response scheme(PPDR) for a Micro grid of a building which is built with Solar PV generation, Battery Storage and fuzzy based energy management system (FEMS). In this work, FEMS supplies excess energy from the combination of Solar PV installation which is occupying the whole are of the building and the maximum capacity of the storage to the gird in the day peak. Also half of the peak load demand in the night peak and subsequent high peak hours in the night intermediate is supplied from the battery storage. The adoption of peak pricing demand response PP(DR) scheme in the utility and the system described in the prosumer is proven to be a beneficial one to both the prosumer and the Utility.
