Numerical Modeling of PV-based Energy Systems from Devices to Renewable Energy Communities
dr.ssa Martina Palermo
In recent years, the energy sector has undergone rapid changes to reduce the environmental impact of energy production, driven by the climate crisis, the limited availability of fossil fuels and the need for energy security. The energy transition, now unavoidable, aims at a new model of production and consumption based on renewable energy sources (RES).
In this seminar, a study will be presented focusing on numerical models for energy production, particularly solar-solar based systems, and the management of electrical consumption of possible utilities. Numerical models, used to simulate and optimize energy processes, are essential tools for resource planning and management. The study was articulated following three approaches: modeling using electrical circuits, artificial intelligence (AI), and simulation software (EnergyPlus, PVGIS). Following these three approaches, models were developed that started from the level of individual devices, extended along the conversion chain, and finally included the overall system, which can range from buildings to, on a larger scale, renewable energy communities. The methodology developed provides insight into the behavior of individual components and their integration within the larger system.
By acquiring a greater understanding of how these elements interact and operate collectively, the efficiency and reliability of renewable energy systems can be optimized, paving the way for more sustainable and resilient energy solutions.
