Optimal Energy Management in Microgrids Using Meta-heuristic Technique
2018
The energy crisis and greenhouse gas emission are increasing around the world. In order to overcome these problems, distributed energy resources are integrated which introduce the concept of microgrid (MG). The microgrid exchanges power with utility to meet load demand with the help of common coupling point. An energy management strategy is proposed in this work, which helps to minimize the operating cost of MG while considering all constraints of the system. For this purpose, a firefly algorithm is used to schedule generators of MG to fulfill the consumer demand considering the desired objectives. The proposed scheme employs FA to minimize the operating cost of a MG. In both grid-connected and islanded modes of MG, proposed scheme is applied for scheduling of distributed generators. The Significance of the proposed strategy is verified through simulations and results.
