Method for energy optimization with reliability analysis of a trigeneration and teleheating system on urban scale: A case study

Our purpose is to realize a teleheating network and create a system able to satisfy the electric demands of the area. The first step is an accurate estimation of the electrical and thermal demands. Then we compare the optimized energy solutions with the traditional ones. Some changes have been introduced to improve the system's availability. All these steps take to an economic evaluation able to give some useful information about the feasibility of the technical choices previously made.
