Use of weather forecast for increasing the self-consumption rate of home solar systems: An Italian case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
With the aim of increasing the self-consumption rate of grid-connected Photovoltaic (PV) home systems, two main options can be implemented: the inclusion of an energy storage system, in particular a battery bank, and the adoption of a Demand Side ...

Response-surface-model-based system sizing for nearly/net zero energy buildings under uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Properly treating uncertainty is critical for robust system sizing of nearly/net zero energy buildings (ZEBs). To treat uncertainty, the conventional method conducts Monte Carlo simulations for thousands of possible design options, which inevitably leads

Demand aggregation for photovoltaic self-consumption

open access: yesEnergy Reports, 2019
The mismatch between photovoltaic generation and residential load leads to relative modest rates of self-consumption of solar electricity unless expensive storage solutions are locally available. One alternative to batteries is the aggregation of demand of different prosumers, as the collective load diagram might be better adapted to the solar resource.
