Subproject of the University of Cadiz (SPUCA) supported by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Agencia Estatal de Investigación (MCIN/AEI/10.13039/ 501100011033) and European Union “NextGenerationEU”/PRTR (Plan de Recuperación, Transformación y Resiliencia)

Call for Strategic Projects Oriented to the Ecological Transition and the Digital Transition (2021). Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.

Duration: 2 years (2022-2024)

 

Objective of the Subproject (SPUCA)

The subproject will address the dynamic modelling, coordinated control and multi-energy complementarities of multi-energy microgrids (MEMGs) with electricity, hydrogen and gas vectors. The specific objectives and main contributions of this subproject are:

1.Development and experimental validation of dynamic models of MEMGs with electricity, hydrogen and gas vectors.

2.Development, evaluation and experimental validation of control methods of MEMGs integrating control agents for electricity, hydrogen and gas networks, which will work coordinately with other MEMGs to achieve an efficient, coordinated and reliable operation of these MEMGs under different operating conditions, such as grid-connected and isolated operation, changes in the generation/consumption, in the stored energy, failures in the MEMGs, communications failure/delays among the control agents, among others.

3.Study of multi-energy complementarities (electricity, hydrogen, thermal energy and electricity/thermal energy storage) in a MEMG and among MEMGs to properly satisfy power and thermal demands flexibly.
