%X Multi-energy microgrids (MEMGs) represent a specific typology of microgrids that combine multiple energy carriers—including electricity, heat, cooling, and hydrogen—within a coordinated framework. Existing studies emphasize energy dispatch optimization and often neglect real-time dynamic control. This paper presents a novel fuzzy-logic control method for the coordinated operation of electricity, hydrogen, and thermal systems in a residential MEMG. A photovoltaic (PV) power plant serves as the primary renewable energy source, while thermal sources include an electric boiler and a chiller. Additionally, a gas boiler is integrated to manage the hot water circuit. A hybrid energy storage system (HESS), comprising a battery and a hydrogen system, enhances operational flexibility. The fuzzy logic-based energy management system (FL-EMS) dynamically coordinates the interaction among energy systems based on renewable energy input and the state of energy (SOE) of the HESS. The proposed method is evaluated through simulations and hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing using OPAL-RT4512 and dSPACE MicroLabBox. The results show that the MEMG operates autonomously, with effective storage coordination and accurate thermal regulation. A sensitivity analysis confirms the robustness and adaptability of the FL-EMS, validating its suitability for real-time MEMG control. Compared to a machine-state-based EMS, the FL-EMS reduces the integral time-weighted squared error (ITSE) for temperature control by 49.38%, operating costs by 12.78%, and energy consumption by 15.05%.
