Optimal management with demand response program for a multi-generation energy system
The optimal management of a multi-generation energy system is one of the challenges that an ever-growing energy demand requires to deal with.To tackle this urgent issue, this paper presents a methodology to identify the optimal dispatching strategy for a multi-generation energy system.The so-called time-of-use rate is one of the main time-based dem
