Abstract

The present contribution is devoted to describe in detail the Smart City Sustainable Energy Living Lab (LL) that the University of Genoa has conceived and positioned inside its Savona Campus research and teaching facilities. Such LL relies on the research and demonstration activities related to the use of special infrastructures as the Smart Polygeneration Microgrid (SPM) and Smart Energy Building (SEB), built with the fundamental contribution of the Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research and the Ministry for Environment, Land and Sea Protection. The LL is jointly operated with the Italian DSO Enel S.p.A. as an “open air” demo site for the testing of on grid/off grid electrical transitions (Sustainable Urban Energy Island) and of potentially new services strictly related to the wide deployment of “e-city” technological solutions (V2G, V2H, e-home and smart appliances). The present paper is mainly focused on the model developed to study a portion of the SPM in islanded configuration; the main results of the analysis are here reported and discussed in order to highlight stability and load sharing issues.
