Abstract
In this letter, an optimal operation model for a multi-agent system (MAS) based microgid is proposed. The objective is to save the overall energy cost represented as a sum of locally observable convex functions. An asynchronous and distributed alternating directions of multipliers method is developed for the MAS-based microgrid to solve the optimization problem with local timer and reach a convergence state. The proposed ap-proach is shown to be highly effective through a simulation case study, indicating high potential for applications.
