Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming for Optimal Design of Energy Grids: Optimization Problems, Possible Solutions, and Model Formulation
Abstract
The energy sector has become priority around the world with developing technology and increasing power and energy demand. That all sources for energy production are not renewable increases greenhouse gas emissions and causes global warming. Turkey's dependence on foreign sources in terms of vital energy resources and the suboptimality of the energy distribution has increased the need for optimum design of energy grids and long-term production planning of established grids. Microgrid is an energy grid consisting of distributed generators, storage units and loads. In this study, optimum design and generation planning of microgrids using mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) is investigated. The optimal design under conditions such as excess electricity, CO2 emission, and water shortage are examined. Finally, the constraints of the optimization models and the empirical equations for each equipment are investigated. Keywords: Mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP), Energy grid optimization, Microgrid, Excess (surplus) electricity, Carbon dioxide emission, Water shortage
