Participation in the International Youth Conference on Energy

Last month, I had the pleasure of participating in the International Youth Conference on Energy (IYCE’24) held from 2 to 6 July 2024 in Colmar, France. I presented our paper, “Energy Efficiency and Optimal Operation of a Residential Microgrid Based on Demand Side Management Strategy”. This work presents a demand-side management approach based on load scheduling and peer-to-peer energy exchange. The strategy is applied to monthly energy data gathered from living labs installed in the Green & Smart Building Park (GSBP) in Benguerir, Morocco. Simulations conducted in the Matlab environment reveal a monthly energy savings of 59% and a 23% increase in the use of renewable energy resources.

 

The paper is co-authored with Oumaima MAHIR, Mohamed LAAMIM, Abdelilah ROCHD, Mohammed OUASSAID, and Hicham OUFETTOUL. It is performed under the INNO ESPAMAROC’s Green Grid project, funded by IRESEN (Research Institute for Solar Energy and New Energies). The paper is published in IEEE Xplore and is available at the following link: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/10634959.
