Abstract

A fuzzy logic controller strategy for battery energy management in a grid connected electro-thermal residential microgrid is presented. The fuzzy control policy manages the power of the microgrid storage elements in order to minimize a set of quality indices involving, among others, the power profile exchanged with the mains. Numerical simulations using real measured data generation and consumption are provided to both validate the control design and to highlight the benefits of including thermal elements in the overall energy management strategy of the system.
