“…A microgrid can operate in stand-alone mode or in gridconnected mode [24,25]. In the former mode, the microgrid is separated from the upstream distribution grid and the microgrid aims to serve the total demands by using its local production.…”

In this paper, the microgrid economic scheduling mathematical model considering the integration of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) is presented and the influence of different charging and discharging modes on microgrid economic operation is analyzed. The generic algorithm is used to find an economically optimal solution for the microgrid and PHEV owners. The scheduling of PHEVs and the microgrid are optimized to reduce daily electricity cost and the potential benefits of controlled charging/discharging are explored systematically. Constraints caused by vehicle utilization as well as technical limitations of distributed generation and energy storage system are taken into account. The proposed economic scheduling is evaluated through a simulation by using a typical grid-connected microgrid model.

Development of a Modelling and Simulation Method for Residential Electricity Consumption Analysis in a Community Microgrid System

Abstract:There is an increasing number of microgrid applications for power system networks at different voltage levels. Community microgrid systems are also being encouraged in order to increase energy efficiency, reduce electricity bills, and alleviate the reliability problem with respect to power delivery for local residential users. Understanding electricity information can help in effective management and control of various energy sources operated in community microgrid systems. This paper thus aims to develop a simulation-based electricity analysis scheme for a real community microgrid configuration using a proposed modelling methodology, simulation mechanisms, and a power balancing control strategy under the MATLAB environment. Simulation results considering different weather conditions report the observed performance of electricity analysis. In addition, calculations of electricity bills depending on two electricity rates are discussed, representing the benefits of electricity bill reduction when electricity users accepted the power supply from community microgrid systems.

Distributed Load-Shedding System for Agent-Based Autonomous Microgrid Operations

Abstract:A microgrid is an eco-friendly power system because renewable sources are used as main power sources. In the islanded operation mode of a microgrid, maintaining the balance between power supply and power demand is a very important problem. In the case of surplus supply, decreased generation output and/or charge of distributed storages can be applied to solve the imbalance between power supply and demand. In the case of supply shortages, increased generation output and/or discharge of distributed storages can be applied. Especially in the case of critical supply shortages, load shedding should be applied. In a distributed load-shedding approach, microgrid components need to make decisions autonomously. For autonomous microgrid operation, a multi-agent system has been investigated. In this paper, a distributed load-shedding system for agent-based autonomous operation of a microgrid is designed. The designed system is implemented and tested to show the functionality and feasibility of the proposed system.
