Abstract
With recent technological developments within the field of power conditioning and the progressive decrease of incentives for PV electricity in grid-connected markets, new operation modes for PV systems should be explored beyond the traditional maximization of PV electricity feed-in. An example can be found in the domestic sector, where the use of modern PV hybrid systems combined with efficient electrical appliances and demand side management strategies can significantly enhance the PV value for the user. This paper presents an active demand side management system able to displace the consumer¿s load curve in response to local (PV hybrid system, user) and external conditions (external grid). In this way, the consumer becomes an ¿active consumer¿ that can also cooperate with others and the grid, increasing even more the PV value for the electrical system.
