Model of a data center connected to renewable energy generation

Extends from Modelica.Icons.Example (Icon for runnable examples).

Information

This model illustrates a data center with DC and AC load. The electrical supply is from a grid, from wind turbines and from PV. The battery is charged during the night and discharged during the day in such a way that it is fully charged and discharged. This control logic is implemented using a finite state machine inside the model con.
