Abstract
The paper presents an innovative optimal control strategy solution for an energy system that consists of combining thermal and electrical energy (Combining Heat and Power - CHP) with the interconnection of Renewable Energy Sources - RES, allowing efficient hybrid energy generation. The consumer's electricity and thermal energy needs are controlled by means of a dedicated microgrid system (MG). The optimization strategy was validated by controlling the HVAC system of a building and aims to satisfy two main objectives: i) minimizing the energy absorbed from the traditional electrical network and ii) guaranteeing acceptable thermal comfort conditions. The proposed demand response program is a parameterized feedback control strategy where the parameters depend on the thermal state of the building, but also on the occupancy pattern of the microgrid.
