Abstract

This study presents an optimal sizing model for PV/battery systems with battery scheduling algorithms. We propose multistep leveling algorithms to determine the half-hourly charge/discharge schedule of a battery. The purpose of these scheduling algorithms is to utilize the available solar energy and to reduce the electricity cost for dwelling houses. The model calculates the optimal size of a PV/battery system in terms of payback time. The following three cases are simulated; more than 25% reduction of CO2 emission, more than 50% reduction of CO2 emission and unconstrained CO2 reduction.
