Smart energy systems applied at urban level: the case of the municipality of Bressanone-Brixen

摘要: The present paper focuses on the energy system of municipality Bressanone-Brixen, located in North Italy. aim this is to investigate various possible scenarios for case study order improve overall efficiency system. different include high penetration photovoltaics at urban level, considering maximum rooftop PV potential local area. Different solutions have been analyzed handling consequent excess electricity production. Electric storage and a solution combining heat pumps thermal evaluated maximize use generated electricity. A deterministic approach (without an optimization algorithm) heuristic applied evaluate configurations. analysis can be interest other cities mountain environment where production from renewables limited by orographic constraints, consumption per capita higher stronger resiliency climate change needed.
