Title
Fuzzy logic simulator for energy management algorithms testing
Abstract
During July 2013 the Italian government definitively cut financial incentives for photovoltaic (PV) plants, leaving only tax benefits and a revised net metering scheme (known as “Scambio sul Posto”) for new PV installations. In this scenario, the design of a new PV plant ensuring savings on electricity bills is strongly related to household electricity consumption patterns. This paper introduces a novel Fuzzy approach to correctly size a residential PV plant and simulate the effects of energy management techniques in a case study. A cost benefits analysis is presented to quantify its effectiveness in the new net metering Italian scenario.
