RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Different electrochemical energy storage systems in a smart microgrid A1 Izquierdo-Monge, Óscar A1 Martínez-Gurría, Marcos A1 Peña-Carro|, Paula A1 Zorita-Lamadrid, Angel A1 Hernández-Jiménez, Ángel A1 Alvira-Ballano, Luis K1 Ingeniería Eléctrica K1 Batteries, energy management, microgrid K1 3306 Ingeniería y Tecnología Eléctricas AB As the utilization of renewable energy continues to grow, microgrids have played a vital role in their generation. Batteries have emerged as the most commonly utilized storage system to effectively store this energy. This paper proposes a novel approach to manage energy consumption at the Centre for the Development of Renewable Energy (CEDER) by leveraging both lithium-ion and lead-acid batteries. This computer-based management system controls the flow of energy that can be charged or discharged in 15-minute intervals. By optimizing the use of both battery types, the energy consumption of CEDER has been reduced by an estimated 90 to 200 kWh, depending on the specific case study PB Universidad de Antioquía SN 0120-6230 YR 2025 FD 2025 LK https://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/75915 UL https://uvadoc.uva.es/handle/10324/75915 LA eng NO Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia (Redin), Septiembre 2024, 114 NO Producción Científica DS UVaDOC RD 04-jul-2025
