The paper is aimed at exploring the opportunities given by the exploitation of different technologies for energy storage in the development of a trigeneration (trigen) and district energy project. In particular, the paper will be devoted to find the best cooling energy storage solution for the on-going San Paolo Power Park project in the City of Bari, Italy. The Power Park is a project that aims at producing energy and energy services through an optimal mix of renewables, CHP/DHC, hydrogen and other forms of energy. The energy produced in the central plant will be distributed in a suburban degraded area devoted to social housing, but also close to some significant energy users (airport, hospital and other major facilities). The optimization problem is solved by means of a two-step multiperiod algorithm. Test results are presented.

Abstract
The paper is aimed at exploring the opportunities given by the exploitation of different technologies for energy storage in the development of a trigeneration (trigen) and district energy project. In particular, the paper will be devoted to find the best cooling energy storage solution for the on-going San Paolo Power Park project in the City of Bari, Italy. The Power Park is a project that aims at producing energy and energy services through an optimal mix of renewables, CHP/DHC, hydrogen and other forms of energy. The energy produced in the central plant will be distributed in a suburban degraded area devoted to social housing, but also close to some significant energy users (airport, hospital and other major facilities). The optimization problem is solved by means of a two-step multiperiod algorithm. Test results are presented.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
