Calvillo Muñoz Chapter 7 Complete smart city energy model: aggregated DER and transport systems with active market participation Chapter 8 Conclusions, contributions and future work Chapter 1 Energy Management of Smart Cities 9 Christian F. Calvillo Muñoz 2 2 LITERATURE REVIEW This chapter presents the identification of energy systems task, corresponding to the smart city energy model methodology described in section 1.3. This includes the evaluation of energy systems available in a smart city, assessing their importance and possible synergies, in addition to the review of the existing models and tools, to select which ones could be used. The first part of the chapter introduces an overview of energy related work on planning and operation models within the smart city by classifying their scope into five main intervention areas. These areas are generation, storage, infrastructure, facilities, and transport. Then, more complex urban energy models integrating more than one intervention area are reviewed, outlining their advantages and limitations, existing trends and challenges, as well as some relevant smart cities applications. With this revision, important elements and possible synergies in the smart city are identified, and a framework for developing a comprehensive smart city energy model is proposed, along with some additional recommendations. Therefore, the main contributions of this chapter are, first, a comprehensive literature review of smart city energy systems and related modelling tools, classifying them in five intervention areas, and second, a framework with guidelines and recommendations for developing a comprehensive smart city energy model.
