cooling, heat and power. The microgrid is supplied
by distributed power from a 30 kWp solar power
system and 6 kW wind turbines. The energy storage system is a 15 kW Â 4 h lithium-ion battery.
Microgrid loads include 10 kW of lighting and
5 kW of EV charging piles. Intelligent control of
the grid is realised through a microgrid energy
management system. Thanks to the deployment of
technologies like power distribution automation,
equipment monitoring system, intelligent
