FeTOP-Energy Management System: Optimal Operational Planning and Control of Energy Plants
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces an energy management system, FeTOP, which provides an optimal operational planning and control scheme of energy plants. It consists of three functions: an energy forecasting function, an optimal operational planning function of the facilities, and a simulation function of the energy plant. In order to generate optimal operational planning for energy plants, startup/shutdown status and/or input/output values of the facilities for each control interval should be determined. The facilities such as a cogeneration system (CGS) may have nonlinear input-output characteristics. Therefore, the problem can be formulated as a mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problem (MINLP). Particle swarm optimization, which is one of the meta-heuristic techniques, is applied to solve the problems in FeTOP. FeTOP can reduce operational costs and environmental loads of plants.
