Book excerpt: The rising share of renewable sources, residential consumers as well as novel energy transition policies call for new energy management strategies to deal with renewable energy sources uncertainty issues and to provide cost-competitive flexibility services. This thesis focuses on flexibility related usecases applied to residential microgrids. Presented sizing approach uses both mono and multiobjective particle swarm optimization to optimize both solar generation and storage taking into account cost competitiveness, user comfort and renewable energy penetration while respecting local regulations. First energy management approach compares 24 and 48h time-horizons for energy arbitrage and assess extended possibilities provided by a wider horizon. Second energy arbitrage approach focuses on energy injection accuracy in a bid-based market context. A novel auto-regressive short term solar irradiation forecast method suitable for peninsular weather is proposed and compared with a reference method. Regarding the sizing optimization, results showed that proposed optimization can generate bill savings for households. Nevertheless, due to current storage cost, off-grid operation is still an unreliable option regarding cost-competitiveness. Both presented energy management strategies showed profitability gains compared to their respective reference. To conclude, strategies showed costcompetitive operation and ability to mitigate supply and demand imbalances. Association of renewable energy and microgrids abilities for communities is an excellent opportunity for cleaner, more reliable and cheaper energy.
