A Control Architecture for Optimal Power Sharing among Interconnected Microgrids

Energy management system of a microgrid (MG) is responsible for determining its optimal generation schedule which fulfills the load demand while satisfying several constraints related to the equipment and system operation. When many MGs are interconnected, it is sometimes preferable to exchange...

description Energy management system of a microgrid (MG) is responsible for determining its optimal generation schedule which fulfills the load demand while satisfying several constraints related to the equipment and system operation. When many MGs are interconnected, it is sometimes preferable to exchange power among MGs in such a manner so as to minimize their operating cost while reducing dependency on the main grid. This paper proposes a cost based power sharing scheme combined with a more realistic EMS scheme. These two schemes are implemented in two control layers which communicate with each other to optimize MG operation. Simulation results demonstrate the benefits of the proposed approach.
