“…First, we have incorporated the CHP and DR into the model, which makes the optimal scheduling model more realistic with respect to the practical applications. Second, the proposed algorithm has shown a better convergence performance as compared with the algorithm proposed in [9]. Finally, the optimal operation cost obtained by Algorithm 1 is almost equal to the centralized method, which is shown in Table 7.…”

From the perspective of transactive energy, the energy trading among interconnected microgrids (MGs) is promising to improve the economy and reliability of system operations. In this paper, a distributed energy management method for interconnected operations of combined heat and power (CHP)-based MGs with demand response (DR) is proposed. First, the system model of operational cost including CHP, DR, renewable distributed sources, and diesel generation is introduced, where the DR is modeled as a virtual generation unit. Second, the optimal scheduling model is decentralized as several distributed scheduling models in accordance with the number of associated MGs. Moreover, a distributed iterative algorithm based on subgradient with dynamic search direction is proposed. During the iterative process, the information exchange between neighboring MGs is limited to Lagrange multipliers and expected purchasing energy. Finally, numerical results are given for an interconnected MGs system consisting of three MGs, and the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified.

Abstract-In this paper we propose two novel coalitional game theory based optimization methods for minimizing the cost of electricity consumed by households from a smart community. Some households in the community may own renewable energy sources (RESs) conjoined with energy storage systems (ESSs). Some other residences own ESSs only, while the remaining households are simple energy consumers. We first propose a coalitional cost optimization method in which RESs and ESSs owners exchange energy and share their renewable energy and storage spaces. We show that by participating in the proposed game these households may considerably reduce their costs in comparison to performing individual cost optimization. We further propose another coalitional optimization model in which RESs and ESSs owning households not only share their resources, but also sell energy to simple energy consuming households. We show that through this energy trade the RESs and ESSs owners can further reduce their costs, while the simple energy consumers also gain cost savings. The cost savings obtained by the coalition are distributed among its members according to the Shapley value. Simulation examples show that the proposed coalitional optimization methods may reduce the electricity costs for the RESs and ESSs owning households by 18%, while the sole energy consumers may reduce their costs by 3%.Index Terms-Coalitional game, demand side management, smart households, renewable energy, energy storage, cost reduction.

A distribution‐market based game‐theoretical model for the coordinated operation of multiple microgrids in active distribution networks

With an increasing number of microgrids being integrated into active distribution networks (ADN), it becomes a challenge how to efficiently coordinate the operations of multiple microgrids (MGs) which are individual entities seeking for their self‐interests. In this paper, a bi‐level noncooperative game‐theoretical model is proposed for MGs operation in ADN based on the distribution system operator (DSO) market and distribution locational marginal prices (DLMPs). The upper level is modeled as a game among MGs who develop their optimal strategies to bid into the DSO market aiming at maximizing their own payoffs. In the lower‐level, the DSO of the ADN implements the market‐clearing and calculates the DLMPs. An iterative solving algorithm is proposed to find the Nash equilibrium of the game model. The case studies show that through the proposed model, the coordinated operation of MGs is achieved while satisfying the security constraints of the ADN.
