Abstract
This paper presents a method to determine optimal energy and power capacity of distributed Energy Storage Systems (ESS) in behind-the-meter applications to maximize local Photovoltaic (PV) utilization or minimize Demand Charge (DC) cost. The problem is solved as a multiobjective optimization model to obtain a set of Pareto optimal solutions for each scenario in each month. An approach is then presented to map the monthly Pareto fronts into a single yearly Pareto front. A cost benefit analysis has also been carried out to show the compromise between PV utilization, DC cost, and ESS cost.
