TL;DR: A new methodology capable of marrying industrial users’ instantaneous need for energy with the production capacity of Renewable Energy Sources, supplemented, when necessary, by energy created through self-production and possibly acquired from third-party suppliers is proposed in order to minimize CO2 emissions and company energy costs.

TL;DR: A methodology to choose the proper sizing of an integrated Photovoltaic unit and a storage architecture starting from the knowledge of the load and solar irradiance time profiles is proposed and an excellent agreement between the approaches is shown.

TL;DR: In this article, a real-time EMS able to manage uncertainties in the forecasting data as well as economical aspects and system operator requirements is proposed, where the economic aspects are performed by solving an optimization problem that minimizes the overall production cost and, therefore, fixes the active power set point for all the programmable units.

TL;DR: In this paper, an Energy Management System (EMS) is proposed to be used in grid connected micro-grids to optimize the energy production/consumption of a microgrid.

TL;DR: In this article, an innovative methodology is developed that aims to combine technological solutions with investment profitability in designing both traditional and innovative renewable power plants by using regression meta-models built according to the theory of Response Surface Methodology.
