Managing storage capacity and production set point for photovoltaic production plants

The objective of this thesis is to realize an intelligent application that manages renewable energy production plants with the capability of storing energy into batteries, and in particular for the FIAMM Green Energy Island plant. Factors to be taken into account are mainly: energy market prices, energy consumption forecasting, energy production forecasting, state of charge of the batteries and signals of the smart grid manager. At each interval the data is updated and the model is veried, making the necessary modications to the power curve in case of variations with respect to the forecasting maked in a previous time. The application interacts with a SCADA system using a database.
