Abstract

This paper describes the transformation of a microgrid into a grid-support asset, providing services for the electric retail market. Services are designed to be offered at an online platform called EU Marketplace, which has been developed within an H2020 Project. In the framework of the Spanish demo site, in the use case of Malaga city beach promenade (UC-7), an existing microgrid composed of photovoltaic and wind generators, lead acid batteries and consumption points is being converted into a system that works in a coordinated and optimized way that provides flexibility services to the electric grid operator. A remote system has been developed which monitors the entire system via SCADA and operates components based on optimization algorithms, minimizing energy costs and offering auxiliary services to the DSO.
