Optimization of District Heating Systems: European Energy Exchange Price-Driven Control Strategy for Optimal Operation of Heating Plants

doi: 10.3384/ecp19157169
District heating (DH)systems are often seenas a good practical approach to meet the local heat demand of districts.Yet, under today’s regulations to renovate buildingson high efficiency standards, the local heat demand is decreasing. Therefore, the operation of DH systems is also affected by the changing heat demand profile, which might lead to less profitfor the operatorsof DH systems. Thus, the operators strive for an optimal operation at which the heat demand is met and the profits are maximized. In this work, a control strategy for optimal operation of a combined heat and power (CHP) based DH is presented. The proposed control strategy couples the operation of CHPs to the European energy exchange (EEX)price by implementing different operation constraints. This configuration is accompanied with another, which is the installation of additional storage volume. Thereby it is held to provide the optimaloperation for the plant technically and economically.
