title = "Optimized cold storage energy management: Miami and Los Angeles case study",
abstract = "Smart management of cold thermal energy storages could help future sustainable energy systems drawing large shares of electricity from renewable sources to balance fluctuating generation. This paper introduces a model-based predictive control strategy for cold thermal energy storages. A novel ice storage model for simulating and optimizing partial charge and discharge storage operation is developed and validated. The optimization problem is solved using a Forward Dynamic Programming approach. A case study analysis for a very hot and humid location (Miami) and a rather temperate climate (Los Angeles) and for each four building types (apartment building, hospital, office, and school) reveals that total cost savings of up to 20% compared to conventional control strategies are possible.",
