A smart energy concept was designed and implemented for a cluster of 5 existing multi-family houses, which combines heat pumps, photovoltaic (PV) modules and combined heat and power units (CHP) to achieve energy- and cost-efficient operation. Measurement results of the first year of operation show that the local power generation by PV modules and CHP unit has a positive effect on the electrical self-sufficiency by reducing electricity import from the grid. In winter, when the CHP unit operates continuously for long periods, the entire electricity for the heat pump and 91 % of the total electricity demand of the neighborhood are supplied locally. In summer, only 53 % is generated within the neighborhood. The use of a specifically developed energy management system EMS is intended to further increase this share. CO2 emissions for heating and electricity of the neighborhood are evaluated and amount to 18.4 kg/(m2a). Compared to the previous energy system consisting of gas boilers (29.1 kg/(m2a)), savings of 37 % are achieved with electricity consumption from the grid being reduced by 65 %. In the second construction stage, an additional heat pump, CHP unit and PV modules will be added. The measurement results indicate that the final district energy system is likely to achieve the ambitious CO2 reduction goal of -50% and further increase the self-sufficiency of the district.
Encapsulant-free N.I.C.E. modules have strong ecological advantages compared to conventional laminated modules but suffer generally from lower electrical performance. Via long-term outdoor monitoring of fullsize industrial modules of both types with identical solar cells, we investigated if the performance difference remains constant over time and which parameters influence its value. After assessing about a full year’s data, two obvious levers for N.I.C.E. optimization are identified: The usage of textured glass and transparent adhesives on the module rear side. Also, the performance loss could be alleviated using tracking systems due to lower AOI values. Our measurements show additionally that N.I.C.E. module surfaces are in average about 2.5°C cooler compared to laminated modules. With these findings, we lay out a roadmap to reduce today’s LIV gap of about 5%rel by different optimizations.
Soiling is an important issue in the renewable energy sector since it can result in significant yield losses, especially in regions with higher pollution or dust levels. To mitigate the impact of soiling on photovoltaic (PV) plants, it is essential to regularly monitor and clean the panels, as well as develop accurate soiling predictions that can affect cleaning strategies and enhance the overall performance of PV power plants. This research focuses on the problem of soiling loss in photovoltaic power plants and the potential to improve the accuracy of soiling predictions. The study examines how soiling can affect the efficiency and productivity of the modules and how to measure and predict soiling using machine learning (ML) algorithms. The research includes analyzing real data from large-scale ground-mounted PV sites and comparing different soiling measurement methods. It was observed that there were some deviations in the real soiling loss values compared to the expected values for some projects in southern Spain, thus, the main goal of this work is to develop machine learning models that could predict the soiling more accurately. The developed models have a low mean square error (MSE), indicating the accuracy and suitability of the models to predict the soiling rates. The study also investigates the impact of different cleaning strategies on the performance of PV power plants and provides a powerful application to predict both the soiling and the number of cleaning cycles.
In this paper we report on further success of our work to develop a multi-method energy optimization which works with a digital twin concept. The twin concept serves to replicate production processes of different kinds of production companies, including complex energy systems and test market interactions to then use them for model predictive optimizing. The presented work finally reports about the performed flexibility assessment leading to a flexibility audit with a list of measures and the impact of energy optimizations made related to interactions with the local power grid i.e., the exchange node of the low voltage distribution grid. The analysis and continuous exploration of flexibilities as well as the exchange with energy markets require a “guide” leading to continuous optimization with a further tool like the Flexibility Survey and Control Panel helping decision-making processes on the day-ahead horizon for real production plants or the investment planning to improve machinery, staff schedules and production
infrastructure.
To improve the building’s energy efficiency many parameters should be assessed considering the building envelope, energy loads, occupation, and HVAC systems. Fenestration is among the most important variables impacting residential building indoor temperatures. So, it is crucial to use the most optimal energy-efficient window glazing in buildings to reduce energy consumption and at the same time provide visual daylight comfort and thermal comfort. Many studies have focused on the improvement of building energy efficiency focusing on the building envelope or the heating, ventilation, and cooling systems. But just a few studies have focused on studying the effect of glazing on building energy consumption. Thus, this paper aims to study the influence of different glazing types on the building’s heating and cooling energy consumption. A real case study building located under a semi-arid climate was used. The building energy model has been conducted using the OpenStudio simulation engine. Building indoor temperature was calibrated using ASHRAE’s statistical indices. Then a comparative analysis was conducted using seven different types of windows including single, double, and triple glazing filled with air and argon. Tripleglazed and double-glazed windows with argon space offer 37% and 32% of annual energy savings. It should be stressed that the methodology developed in this paper could be useful for further studies to improve building energy efficiency using optimal window glazing.
The nonlinear behavior of inverters is largely impacted by the interlocking and switching times. A method for online identifying the switching times of semiconductors in inverters is presented in the following work. By being able to identify these times, it is possible to compensate for the nonlinear behavior, reduce interlocking time, and use the information for diagnostic purposes. The method is first theoretically derived by examining different inverter switching cases and determining potential identification possibilities. It is then modified to consider the entire module for more robust identification. The methodology, including limitations and boundary conditions, is investigated and a comparison of two methods of measurement acquisition is provided. Subsequently the developed hardware is described and the implementation in an FPGA is carried out. Finally, the results are presented, discussed, and potential challenges are encountered.
The present work describes an extension of current slope estimation for parameter estimation of permanent magnet synchronous machines operated at inverters. The area of operation for current slope estimation in the individual switching states of the inverter is limited due to measurement noise, bandwidth limitation of the current sensors and the commutation processes of the inverter's switching operations. Therefore, a minimum duration of each switching state is necessary, limiting the final area of operation of a robust current slope estimation. This paper presents an extension of existing current slope estimation algorithms resulting in a greater area of operation and a more robust estimation result.
Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird ein Strommarktsimulationsmodell entwickelt, mit dessen Hilfe die Bereitstellung von Flexibilität auf dem Strom- und Regelleistungsmarkt in Deutschland modell-gestützt analysiert werden soll. Das Modell bildet dabei zwei parallel verlaufende, zentrale Wettbewerbsmärkte ab, an denen Akteure durch die individuelle Gebotsermittlung handeln können. Die entsprechend hierzu entwickelte Gebotslogik wird detailliert erläutert, wobei der Fokus auf der Flexibilität fossil-thermischer Kraftwerke liegt. In der anschließenden Gegen-überstellung mit realen Marktpreisen zeigt sich, dass die verwendete Methodik und die Ge-botslogik den bestehenden Markt und dessen Marktergebnis in geeigneter Form wiederspie-geln, wodurch zukünftig unterschiedlichste Flexibilitätsszenarien analysiert und Aussagen zu deren Auswirkungen auf den Markt und seine Akteure getroffen werden können.
