Optimal energy management

This paper presents the operational planning of an integrated trigenerative system.The installation of a CHCP plant depends on the financial investments. This work shows an optimization procedure to foresee a management of the system aimed to increase yield of investment. The optimization procedure seems to work well as foreseen PBP is short if compared with other similar installed plants. Nothing can be said about IRR, whose quality depends on the kind of investment wished by the manager.
