An electricity MicroGrid
A District Heating System.
Interconnected at the CHP Unit
Both serve the same group of consumers.
Generation/demand balancing is a challenge

Grid Connection
Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011
Should heat and electricity networks of the Energy MicroGrid be operated as an integrated system or as two independent systems?
Study tool: The Integrated Optimal Power Flow
Non-Integrated Operation Integrated Operation
CHP Unit Supply Temperature Constant Variable
Heat-to-Power ratio (function of the supply temperature)
Constant Variable
Load following Heat driven Flexible
Electricity to heat conversion Not available Available
Thermal storage Not available Available

Operation of the Energy MicroGrid
Frankfurt (Germany), 6-9 June 2011
Case Study
24 hours study period
Islanded electricity network
IOPF used to produce optimal schedules
Integrated operation minimises the need to shed loads and to curtail generation
