French regulation allows consumers in low-voltage networks to form collectives to produce, share, and consume local energy under the collective self-consumption framework. A natural consequence of collectively-owned generation projects is the need to allocate production among consumers. In long-term plans, production allocation determines each of the consumers benefits of joining the collective. In the short-term, energy should be dynamically allocated to reflect operation. This paper presents a framework that integrates long and short-term planning of a collective that shares a solar plus energy storage system. In the long-term planning stage, we maximize the collectives welfare and equitably allocate expected energy to each consumer. For operation, we propose a model predictive control algorithm that minimizes short-term costs and allocates energy to each consumer on a 30-minute basis (as required by French regulation). We adjust the energy allotment ex-post operation to reflect the materialization of uncertainty. We present a case study where we showcase the framework for a 15 consumer collective.
Energy storage is expected to play an increasingly important role in mitigating variations that come along with the growing penetration of renewable energy. In this paper, we study the optimal bidding of an energy storage unit in a semi-centralized m
This paper presents a framework for deriving the storage capacity that an electricity system requires in order to satisfy a chosen risk appetite. The framework takes as inputs user-defined event categories, parameterised by peak power-not-served, acc
We propose a novel direct transcription and solution method for solving nonlinear, continuous-time dynamic optimization problems. Instead of forcing the dynamic constraints to be satisfied only at a selected number of points as in direct collocation,
Since the early months of 2020, non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) -- implemented at varying levels of severity and based on widely-divergent perspectives of risk tolerance -- have been the primary means to control SARS-CoV-2 transmission. We se
Electricity distribution networks that contain large photovoltaic solar systems can experience power flows between customers. These may create both technical and socio-economic challenges. This paper establishes how these challenges can be addressed
