8. The Smart Polygeneration Microgrid (SPM) Project
Main goals:
• to build a R&D facility test-bed for both renewable and fossil
energy sources
• to promote joint scientific programs among University,
industrial companies and distribution network operators
Day-ahead production scheduling of dispatchable
sources and storage exploiting renewables forecast and
optimization techniques
• to optimize thermal & electrical energy consumptions,
minimizing the CO2 emissions, annual operating costs and
primary energy use of the whole University Campus

9. The Smart Energy Building (SEB) Project
•
Special project in the energy efficiency sector funded by the Italian Ministry for
Environment (amount 3.0 M€)
•
SEB is an environmentally sustainable building connected to the SPM, equipped by
renewable power plants and characterized by energy efficiency measures:
•
Geothermal heat pump
•
PV plant on the roof (20 kWp)
•
Micro wind turbine (horizontal axis, 3 kW)
•
High performance thermal insulation
materials for building applications
•
Ventilated facades

10. SPM & SEB inside the Savona
Campus of the University of
Genoa
• SEB is an “active load” of the SPM
SEB is an energy “PROSUMER”

13. Storage-related research activity
• SPM OPTIMAL SCHEDULING
DEMS uses
o costs and revenues functions;
o forecast of electric and thermal energy demand;
o operative constraints (equipment ratings, maximum power ramp, etc.);
o forecast of the renewable units production by resorting to weather services and
historical records
to compute a scheduling for dispatchable sources including storage, which
minimizes the daily energy costs. The optimization process has a time-horizon of 1 day
(typical of a day-ahead energy market session), subdivided in 15 minutes time-intervals.
The optimization method is based on linear programming.
• This research line results at the storage level in an automatic production shifting
application

15. Economic & Environmental Analysis
• Two different scenarios are considered
AS-IS
Without SPM & SEB
TO-BE
With SPM & SEB
• Electrical Energy
→ National Grid
• Thermal Energy
→ 2 boilers (gas,1000 kWth)
• Electrical Energy
→ National Grid + SPM + SEB
• Thermal Energy
→ 2 boilers + SPM + SEB

23. Economic & Environmental Analysis
Economic and environmental benefits provided by the system SPM + SEB can be
further increased by:
• using the mGTs in trigeneration asset (resorting to the absorption chiller) in order to
cool the library of the Savona Campus (now cooled by means of an electrical heat
pump) during summer months (+ 600 working hours for the mGTs with respect to the
examined case)

24. Conclusions
• The “Sustainable Energy” R&D infrastructures under construction at the Savona
Campus of the University of Genoa have been described and the main research
lines that can be investigated by means of their use have been outlined
• An approach has been presented to assess the Campus operating costs, CO 2
emissions and primary energy saving on a yearly time-scale
• It has been shown that the Smart Polygneration Microgrid (SPM) and the Smart
Energy Building (SEB) contribute to increase the overall energy efficiency of the
Campus, lowering its environmental impact
• It should be underlined that the revenues obtained by the improved energy
performances of the whole Campus can be then employed to financially support
research activities and to yearly upgrade the two pilot plants SPM + SEB
