This day-ahead scheduling model is complemented with a real-time economic MPC model for a subsequent control with respect to the outcomes of the day-ahead scheduling. This combined scheduling and economic MPC provides a general set-up capable of overcoming several major difficulties encountered with a typical scheduling + tracking MPC set-up, e.g. the problems of connecting the economic objectives with different temporal resolution and different requirements in terms of delivery. publisher: IEEE date: 2017 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: http://eprints.imtlucca.it/4000/1/08231216.pdf identifier: Vasilj, Josip and Gros, Sebastien and Jakus, Damir and Zanon, Mario Day-ahead scheduling and real-time Economic MPC of CHP unit in Microgrid with Smart buildings.
