Abstract

Electrical energy storage systems can provide several benefits along the entire value chain of the electrical system. In this paper attention is paid to the end user point of view, with particular reference to industrial customers. An optimal operating strategy is proposed for energy storage systems with the aim of reducing the electricity bill costs sustained by an industrial customer and contemporaneously satisfying technical constraints for the maximization of the storage system efficiency and life cycle. The proposal, which is developed in this paper by means of computer simulations, will be realized in an industrial facility located in the South of Italy in the frame of the GREAT project, a research plan aimed at developing advanced methods and tools for micro-grid applications.
