Abstract :
The paper proposes a model for the thermal network of the Savona Campus Smart Polygeneration Microgrid (SPM) in terms of an equivalent electric circuit. Such model allows to represent in a simple but accurate way the behavior of the SPM thermal network in order to insert it into the Energy Management System (EMS) that is presently running in the SPM control room. The parameters of the thermal circuit are identified by means of an algorithm that minimizes the difference between the temperature profile as calculated with the circuit and the measured one.
