Microgrid capacity configuration optimization

What is the optimal capacity configuration model for a grid-connected microgrid?

An optimal capacity configuration model of the grid-connected microgrid is proposed, which comprehensively considers economic cost, renewable energy utilization efficiency and carbon emissions. Through the combination with the previous work, it provides a new solution to the problem of microgrid planning.

Does capacity configuration optimization improve the stability of microgrids?

To improve the accuracy of capacity configuration of ES and the stability of microgrids, this study proposes a capacity configuration optimization model of ES for the microgrid, considering source–load prediction uncertainty and demand response (DR). First, a microgrid, including electric vehicles, is constructed.

Is microgrid a good model for capacity planning?

An optimal grid-connected microgrid capacity configuration model is proposed. A case study is carried out to validate the proposed capacity planning solution. Microgrid is considered an efficient paradigm for managing the massive number of distributed renewable generation and storage facilities.

Do peak-to-valley differences affect the stability of a microgrid?

High peak-to-valley differences on the load side also affect the stable operation of the microgrid. To improve the accuracy of capacity configuration of ES and the stability of microgrids, this study proposes a capacity configuration optimization model of ES for the microgrid, considering source–load prediction uncertainty and demand response (DR).

Does es capacity and Dr reduce the cost of a microgrid?

The simulation results show that the optimal configuration of ES capacity and DR promotes renewable energy consumption and achieves peak shaving and valley filling, which reduces the total daily cost of the microgrid by 22%. Meanwhile, the DR model proposed in this paper has the best optimization results compared with a single type of the DR model.

Does microgrid configuration affect energy consumption scheduling?

The joint optimization of microgrid configuration and energy consumption scheduling is formulated as a leader–follower Stackelberg game to model the coordination between microgrid configuration and energy consumption scheduling , while the uncertainty of wind power and solar power is not considered either.
