Building Integrated Photovoltaics for smart grids

This paper presents a case study of a Building Integrated Photovoltaics deployed in a parking lot. Computational models were developed in order to estimate the energy generation, and the usage of batteries for energy management. A developed energy management system, with an algorithm to work with Time-Of-Use tariffs, electric vehicles and storage systems is also described and simulated. The results achieved in a pilot project are also discussed.
