Modelling and Validation on Field of EESS Management Strategies in Grid-Connected PV Systems for End Users

Abstract

In this work different management strategies for Electrical Energy Storage Systems (EESS) have been modeled in the ENEA’s Simulator Plant and subsequently tested on field in the PV Plant. The Plant (12 kWp, 12 kWh) is equipped with ABB REACT1 systems. A relevant aspect of the Plant is the Energy Management System (EMS), developed by ENEA that allows the EESS control and supervision in real time according to the selected management strategy. Self-consumption and Peak-Shaving strategies have been modeled and successfully tested.
