JAUE2024-038: Optimal Automatic Operation System for Energy Systems by CEMS

Abstract

A Community Energy Management System (CEMS) was installed in a smart community. One of the functions of CEMS is optimal automatic operation control of the heat source of an energy center (EC). This operation control mainly consists of "optimal operation planning" and "automatic operation" based on demand forecasting, and can operate automatically. Particularly, "demand forecasting" is characterized by the confirmation of influencing factors and the evolution of forecasting formulae, while the optimal operation plan has a "cost-saving mode" and a CO2 reduction mode. The city was completed in November 2023. In December, a demonstration experiment of optimal automatic operation was conducted to verify its effectiveness. This study reports the results of data analysis of the demand forecast and optimal operation plan in the demonstration experiment and analyzes the validity of the optimal automatic operation function of CEMS.
