Abstract

Energy communities play a critical role as stakeholders in modern power grids. However, operating such communities can be challenging due to the complexities, uncertainties, and conflicting objectives involved. The purpose of this paper is to showcase how the integration of a storage system into an energy community can contribute to maintaining the well-being of each community member during grid faults. The study models two distinct energy communities, taking into account non-controllable and controllable devices in each home as sources of consumption and power supply sources such as PV systems installed in community homes, as well as power from the main grid or storage system.
