Abstract:Transaction-based energy (TE) management and control has become an increasingly relevant topic, attracting considerable attention from industry and the research community alike. As a result, new techniques are emerging for its development and actualization. This paper presents a comprehensive review of TE involving peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading and also covering the concept, enabling technologies, frameworks, active research efforts and the prospects of TE. The formulation of a common approach for TE management modelling is challenging given the diversity of circumstances of prosumers in terms of capacity, profiles and objectives. This has resulted in divergent opinions in the literature. The idea of this paper is therefore to explore these viewpoints and provide some perspectives on this burgeoning topic on P2P TE systems. This study identified that most of the techniques in the literature exclusively formulate energy trade problems as a game, an optimization problem or a variational inequality problem. It was also observed that none of the existing works has considered a unified messaging framework. This is a potential area for further investigation.

“…Debido a la variabilidad de la generación, los requerimientos de seguridad y las caracterís-ticas de las cargas conectadas, es necesario definir una infraestructura de comunicaciones eficiente que permita la interacción de todos los agentes que configuran la microrred [3], teniendo en cuenta que: i) la disponibilidad de esta infraestructura se basa, en su mayoría, en los diferentes esquemas de conexión y configuraciones de control, y ii) el modo de operación dinámico y cambiante de la microrred es dependiente de los recursos y cargas disponibles en el momento de su funcionamiento.…”

ELÉCTRICAS Redes de Ingeniería COMMUNICATION INFRASTRUCTURE IN MICROGRIDSPalabras clave: arquitectura de comunicaciones, microrred eléctrica, protocolos de comunicaciones, topología de red.Keywords: communication architecture, microgrid, communication protocols, network topology. RESUMENEste artículo presenta un estudio de la actualidad técnica y tecnológi-ca de la infraestructura de comunicaciones utilizadas en microrredes eléctricas, pues ha surgido la necesidad de investigar, analizar, mejorar y desarrollar métodos de comunicación tanto alámbricos como inalámbricos que permitan crear una infraestructura de comunicaciones que soporte las características de control, supervisión y trasmisión de información entre dispositivos de control en una microrred de forma eficiente, segura y confiable. Dadas estas características en el artículo, se analizan las diferentes arquitecturas y topologías propuestas en torno a comunicaciones en el ambiente Smart Grid que se puedan adaptar a la forma en que opera una microrred. Se muestran las propuestas y desarrollos realizados en el área de telecomunicaciones concerniente a protocolos de comunicaciones utilizados en microrredes eléctricas, con el fin de conocer las tecnologías, protocolos y algoritmos utilizados en la transmisión de datos. ABSTRACTThis paper shows a study of the technical and technological communications infrastructure currently used in electrical microgrid, in this way it is important investigate, analyze, improve and develop methods to both wired and wireless communication to create a communications infrastructure that support control, monitoring and transmission of information between control devices in a microgrid efficiently, safely and reliably. Given these characteristics, in this paper is presented the different architectures and topologies proposals around the Smart Grid communications which can be adapted to the shape that operates the microgrid. Also, the proposals and developments made in the area of telecommunications concerning communications protocols used in electrical microgrids, in order to know the technologies, protocols and algorithms used in data transmission are shown.

“…In general, the operation of MMEMS consists of various technologies of DER, wind, photovoltaic (PV), energy storage system (ESS), electric vehicles (EVs), loads and smart appliances (Figure 1). However, MMEMS can have issues, such as handling the variable output power of wind/PV, security and load sharing [8]. In addition, there are several vulnerabilities, which are discussed in detail in Section 2, in the existing SCADA system that lead to physical and cyber-attacks on the control and communication network.…”

This paper presents a reliable and secure supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system equipped with advanced communication technologies (ACT) to enhance the operation and cyber security of the communication network in residential microgrid. The proposed approach uses the mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) for collecting data of power consumption from smart meters of residential areas and electric vehicles (EVs), and also for connecting mobile system operators to the network. Moreover, by understanding the dynamic nature of MANET and their exposure to cyber-attacks, we propose an intrusion detection and prevention (IDP) technology with secure knowledge algorithm and anomaly detection for preventing the black hole attacks, and other unknown attacks that result into packet dropping. Test results obtained by using Network Simulator (NS-2) demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed IDP technology in preventing the cyber-attacks in the proposed residential microgrid communication network.
