Abstract
dc.description.abstract
Small productive processes (SPPs) are promising drivers that promote the economic use of
energy in microgrids (MGs). Both the complex nature of the SPPs and voltage variations make the
operation of MGs challenging, since the quality of an energy management system’s (EMS) decisions
depend on its characterization. The aim of this work is to propose a methodology for SPPs modeling,
and to consider the influence of voltage on load consumption, which has general validity, and can be
efficiently integrated into different MG EMS approaches. For this purpose, a novel extended multizone
ZIP approach for the characterization of SPP loads and sensitivity to voltage changes is proposed.
The associated framework herein presented was assessed using actual data collected from SPPs
installed near the city of Arica, in northern Chile. The results showed that the proposed methodology
was capable of representing the complex load behavior of the SPPs, properly considering the voltage
influence. These results were compared with those obtained through common approaches found
in the literature. The effectiveness of the proposed approach in representing SPP loads and their
sensitivity to voltage changes was verified. The proposed scheme can be efficiently integrated into a
wide range of EMS for MGs that include SPPs.
