Abstract :
The paper deals with innovative idea that is to move beyond the current concept of smart grid, proposing a new architecture, called Sustainable Energy Microsystem (SEM). The proposed design includes energy sub-systems currently independent: high efficiency buildings, sustainable mobility systems, dispersed generation from renewables and Combined Heat and Power units. In the paper, the authors show the main figures of the SEM and report the first results about the necessary preliminary energy analysis.
