Abstract :
This work focusses on the development of modelling tools for optimal energy management in an industrial/commercial setting having cogeneration plants. Both cases of gas and steam turbine-based cogeneration plants are taken into consideration. A scheduling tool is also built into this model to help in scheduling of multi-interval shiftable loads with variable amplitude load profiles
