This letter proposes a fully decentralized approach to economic dispatch in microgrids with a novel communicationless strategy. It is aimed to overcome the limitations on strong dependency of center node and nodal communication in the conventional approaches. Comparative case studies based on a 14bus microgrid demonstrate that the proposed approach can achieve a global consensus in a mesh network and the overall communication burden can be significantly reduced.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
