    Renewable generation and demand response integration in micro-grids: development of a new energy management and control system

    Full text link
    The aim of this research resides in the development of an energy management and control system (EMCS) to control a micro-grid based on the use of renewable generation and demand resources to introduce the application of demand response concepts to the management of micro-grids in order to effectively integrate the demand side as an operation resource for the grid and improve energy efficiency of the elements. As an additional result, the evaluation of reductions in the total amount of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere due to the improvement of the energy efficiency of the system is assessed.Álvarez, C.; Escrivá-Escrivá, G.; Alcázar-Ortega, M.
