Three-Objective Optimal Scheduling for Microgrids
Three-Objective Optimal Scheduling for Microgrids A microgrid, also known as micro-net, represents a novel network architecture comprising distributed generation units, loads, energy storage systems, and control devices. This autonomous system enables self-control, protection, and management while supporting both grid-connected and islanded operations. Unlike traditional power grids, microgrids integrate multiple distributed energy resources and associated loads via specific topological configurations, interconnected with conventional grids through static switches. Code Implementation Insight: Optimization algorithms typically involve multi-objective functions minimizing operational costs, carbon emissions, and maximizing reliability. Key functions may include Pareto-front solvers using genetic algorithms or mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) with constraints for power balance and storage dynamics.
