Abstract
The increase of distributed generation in several countries has led to new legislation that allows the owners to use the energy obtained from them in three possible ways: use the energy to face own consumption such as on-site generation, sell energy to the grid as a producer, or finally, do both according to context of operation. In this way, these technologies can be more easily introduced to the average public if there is a managing application that can represent the interests of its owners and perform the appropriate measures. This paper proposes a methodology for the management of different available technologies owned by a prosumer, analyzing the possible role it can have and what type of scheduling can be made, operating in the third way mentioned before.
