Abstract

Energy delivery within a micro grid (MG) is expected to be monitored and controlled diligently. It is the integral part of a MG operation that brings intelligence to the grid, if done smartly. In this paper, smart condition monitoring and efficient control of a campus building connected to a MG have been illustrated. In the current set up, combined heat and power generator, along with other renewable energy sources, are supplying power to the building¡¯s rotatory and lighting loads. With automation and IoT enabled technologies, MG¡¯s generation, as well as, load dissipation can be monitored remotely to take proper control decision. Even though distributed control system (DCS) are executing control actions locally, the IoT-enabled building loads can be monitored or controlled remotely. Results show that the condition monitoring based control enhances the efficiency and reliability of electric power delivery.
