Simulation Approach Towards Energy Flexible Manufacturing Systems

This authored monograph provides in-depth analysis and methods for aligning electricity demand of manufacturing systems to VRE supply. The book broaches both long-term system changes and real-time manufacturing execution and control, and the author presents a concept with different options for improved energy flexibility including battery, compressed air and embodied energy storage. The reader will also find a detailed application procedure as well as an implementation into a simulation prototype software. The book concludes with two case studies. The target audience primarily comprises research experts in the field of green manufacturing systems.

Addresses the challenge of integrating variable renewable electricity supply Analyzes both long-term system changes and real-time manufacturing execution Contains two case studies Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
