Collective self-consumption (CSC) systems offer a great opportunity to increase the viability of photovoltaic installations by reducing costs and increasing profitability for consumers. In addition, CSC systems increase self-sufficiency (SS) and self-consumption (SC). These systems require a proper energy allocation strategy (EAS) to define the energy distribution within the CSC. However, most EASs do not analyze the individual impact of the rules and mechanisms adopted. Therefore, six different EASs are proposed and evaluated in terms of both collective and individual cost, SC, and SS. The results show that the EASs based on minimizing collective costs are the most beneficial for the community, although they imply an unfair distribution of energy among users. On the other hand, the other EASs proposed stand out for reaching an equilibrium in terms of cost, SS, and SC, although the collective profitability is lower. The best results are achieved considering dynamic coefficients, which are preferred over static ones. |
