Abstract
The increasing integration of microgrids into distribution networks has highlighted the significance of evaluating and managing intelligent microgrids from both technical and economic perspectives. In this paper, a decentralized approach using agents is employed to optimize the operation of an intelligent microgrid within the telecommunications platform. The decentralized control method comprises two layers. The first layer represents the main microgrid, which includes loads and their controllers, as well as renewable and conventional resources. In the secondary layer, there is a telecommunication platform in which agents can operate as a control processor along with the means of communication. It should be noted that agents interact with the primary layer and neighbouring agents and exchange information with each other. This exchange takes place until the best state of optimization for the power supply occurs. In this study, the operation cost is calculated for decentralized control rules and considering telecommunication links. Also, the effect of performance on cost reduction is examined and compared with normal conditions and centralized methods. It can be seen that the operation cost of the network has decreased to 9.034% after the implementation of the mentioned method in comparison with the normal condition and it has decreased to 6.957% in comparison with the centralized method. Then, using a demand side management program, the cost will be reduced by 2.5%. In the next step, the uncertainty of available resources is taken into account where the uncertainties increase the cost by 7.8%.
期刊介绍:
IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution is intended as a forum for the publication and discussion of current practice and future developments in electric power generation, transmission and distribution. Practical papers in which examples of good present practice can be described and disseminated are particularly sought. Papers of high technical merit relying on mathematical arguments and computation will be considered, but authors are asked to relegate, as far as possible, the details of analysis to an appendix.
The scope of IET Generation, Transmission & Distribution includes the following:
Design of transmission and distribution systems
Operation and control of power generation
Power system management, planning and economics
Power system operation, protection and control
Power system measurement and modelling
Computer applications and computational intelligence in power flexible AC or DC transmission systems
Special Issues. Current Call for papers:
Next Generation of Synchrophasor-based Power System Monitoring, Operation and Control - https://digital-library.theiet.org/files/IET_GTD_CFP_NGSPSMOC.pdf
