Optimized Flexible Photovoltaic Installations
The Energy Box is a hardware-software integrated solution for the smart and dynamic
energy management of a set of energy systems
Grid import export
Battery operation
Local generation
Building Loads
The automatic management of the installation
include the following modules:
Machine Learning algorithms to forecast demand;
Weather Forecast to obtain renewable generation and;
Electricity Prices Forecasts
In order to perform an optimal management with the
following objectives:
1.overall electricity costs minimization
2.electricity peak-shaving
3.CO2eq emissions minimization

Need of involvement of neighbors community and
Landscape Department from project conception
The different stakeholders throughout the project value chain should be involved
from the early stages of the project conception

Evaluation of savings come from the self-consumption ratio
of the building as well as avoidances of maximum demand
penalties and energy arbitrage

Evaluation of emissions avoidance comes from the self-
sufficient ratio (%) of the installation as well as the self-
consumption pattern
The hourly emission factor of the national electricity mix should be compared with
the self-consumption load curve of the installation.

Energy Management Stakeholders KPI’s Business Model
The roll out of photovoltaic installations at urban scale
need the maintenance costs to drop significantly and the
Municipal Ordinances to promote this usage of the rooftop
The business model is based on an energy service contract with the customer

11. I II III IVIII
Energy Management Stakeholders KPI’s Business Model
The New Royal Decree for self-consumption has left behind
the taxes that decreased economic viability of such projects
and acknowledge the collective self-consumption
Collective Self-consumption optimizes the PV load curve since the loads of dwellings
and the commercial building on the basement are complementary. Profitability of
projects increases significantly.
