Abstract
Hybrid and intermittent characteristics of the distributed energy resources (DERs) bring great challenges to the security control and economic dispatch (ED) of the microgrids. To bypass these hurdles, this article proposes a multiagent system-based integrated design of security control and ED to guarantee the effective and economical operation of the interconnected microgrids. First, a hierarchical control scheme is constructed by two-level unit agents, in which the switching control and dynamic regulation are fully implemented with the corresponding hybrid behaviors based on the differential hybrid Petri-net (DHPN) model. Based on the DHPN model, a novel dynamic ED integrated with security control is proposed to overcome the issues that cannot be solved in conventional models. Furthermore, to reduce the computational complexity and unified the mathematical model of the DERs, the inverter-based power control strategy is converted to a predictive control model which can be decomposed into several subsystems. In the optimization process, all the subsystems are implemented in a fully distributed, communication free, and rolling optimization manner based on the distributed model predictive control (DMPC). The validity of the proposed design is demonstrated according to the simulation results in case studies.
