Techno-economic design of a smart multienergy microgrid

The paper presents the main objectives, approach, and research challenges of the Mission Innovation project “MISSION Multivector Integrated Smart Systems and Intelligent microgrids for accelerating the energy transition” carried out in the research center of Portici (ENEA). More specifically, the work started with an analysis of the state of the art of smart networks implemented at national and international level, with the aim of identifying the innovative elements of Smart Energy Microgrid (SEM) ENEA compared to the existing installations. A special focus has been given to the preliminary assessment of the technologies involved, the sizing and the constraints of the SEM. The productions of the technologies that allow to understand the behavior of the entire simulated energy system are reported. Based on the analysis of the results achieved and through the considerations of the available space, the most feasible scenario is revealed.
