Abstract:
A computer-implemented method is provided for controlling a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) having a battery set and connected to a Photovoltaic (PV) panel set. The method includes enforcing, by a processor device, a multi-objective Model Predictive Control (MPC) optimization on the BESS. The multi-objective MPC optimization includes a first objective of reducing a possibility of Demand Charge Threshold violations by minimal DCT increments which provide a higher demand charge savings, a second objective of improving a robustness of the BESS against energy forecast errors by increasing a State Of Charge (SOC) of the battery set, and a third objective of maximizing PV-utilization. The method further includes controlling, by the processor device, charging and discharging of the BESS in accordance with the multi-objective MPC optimization to meet the first, second, and third objectives.

Claim (Index 8):
The computer program product of  claim 7 , wherein the system robustness is improved with respect to handling unexpected net load peaks and preventing complete battery depletion for PV-utilization.
