Fuzzy logic based energy management strategy for commercial buildings integrating photovoltaic and storage systems

This paper presents an energy management strategy for a commercial building in supermarket application. Some objectives are established as load shedding, to reduce the electricity bill and the CO2 emissions of commercial building, using photovoltaic (PV) and storage systems. An energy management supervision strategy based on the rules of the electricity bill will be presented. This paper focuses on the supervision strategy with the help of fuzzy logic and a graphical methodology to build it. It is shown, with the help of simulations and some economic and ecological indicators that the energy bill cost and the CO2 emissions can be reduced by using the proposed solution.
