Description
Summary:In this paper, a distributed robust energy management scheme for multiple interconnected microgrids (MGs) is developed. It aims to optimize the total operational cost of the MGs through energy trading with neighboring MGs and the main grid in the real-time energy market. Various uncertainties including renewable generation, load consumption, and buying/selling prices of the main grid are handled using an adjustable robust optimization technique. To keep consistent with the distributed nature of the multiple MGs, we propose a distributed adjustable robust optimal scheduling algorithm. Within the framework, each MG energy management system determines its own selling price and operation schedule via distributed communication of noncritical information with its neighboring MGs. Robust optimal scheduling and fair energy trading can be collectively achieved. A case study of a 4-MG system is conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
