3.1.- OPERATING MODES
The Dispenser has three operating modes, depending on the load of the energy storage sys-
tems:
 Normal mode,
 Bonus mode,
 Restriction mode,
3�1�1�- NORMAL MODE
This operating mode corresponds to a situation in which there is a balance between the energy
available in the storage systems of the micro-grid and the consumed energy.
Following the water analogy, the normal mode represents the balance between filling and emp-
tying of the water tank.
This is the most beneficial situation for a micro-grid and for the user. Therefore, the objective is
to work under these conditions at all times.
3�1�2�- BONUS MODE
In this case, the storage systems have managed to store the maximum amount of energy after
various insolation periods. In turn, the consumption of energy by users is not excessive.
This is when a bonus is applied to the consumption of energy, reducing its price.
3�1�3�- RESTRICTION MODE
In this case, either the storage system has not fully charged after a period of time or there has
been excessive consumption by users. Therefore, the consumption of energy must be limited
by means of increasing its price.
3�1�4�- EXAMPLE
The irradiation curve in Figure 5 shows an insolation period between 06:00h and 18:00h, reach-
ing the maximum level of insolation at 12:00h.
