This study presents an integrated energy management strategy for cost optimization in multi-energy community microgrids (MGs). The proposed approach combines storage-based peak shaving, economic dispatch of diesel generators, and efficient…
Achieving the economical and stable operation of Multi-microgrids (MMG) systems is vital. However, there are still some challenging problems to be solved. Firstly, from the perspective of stable operation, it is necessary to minimize the…
Electric storage units constitute a key element in the emerging smart grid system. In this paper, the interactions and energy trading decisions of a number of geographically distributed storage units are studied using a novel framework…
We propose in this paper an optimal control framework for renewable energy communities (RECs) equipped with controllable assets. Such RECs allow its members to exchange production surplus through an internal market. The objective is to…
Coalitional control is concerned with the management of multi-agent systems where cooperation cannot be taken for granted (due to, e.g., market competition, logistics). This paper proposes a model predictive control (MPC) framework aimed at…
Renewable energy-based microgrids play a critical role in future smart grids. Due to the uncertainties of renewable generations, the microgrids face potential risk of load shedding during operation. To address this problem, we propose a…
This paper studies social cooperation backed peer-to-peer energy trading technique by which prosumers can decide how they can use their batteries opportunistically for participating in the peer-to-peer trading. The objective is to achieve a…
We study the problem of market equilibrium (ME) in future wireless networks, with multiple actors competing and negotiating for a pool of heterogeneous resources (communication and computing) while meeting constraints in terms of global…
This work proposes an optimal power management strategy for shipboard microgrids equipped with diesel generators and a battery energy storage system. The optimization provides both the unit commitment and the optimal power dispatch of all…
This paper proposes a novel hierarchically coordinated energy management system (EMS) for a regional community (e.g., residential area, campus, industrial park, etc.) comprising multiple small-scale microgrids (MGs) (e.g., houses,…
Microgrids incorporate distributed energy resources (DERs) and flexible loads, which can provide energy and reserve services for the main grid. However, due to uncertain renewable generations such as solar power, microgrids might…
Traditional power grid infrastructure presents significant barriers to renewable energy integration and perpetuates energy access inequities, with low-income communities experiencing disproportionately longer power outages. This study…
This paper proposes a peer-to-peer energy trading scheme that can help the centralized power system to reduce the total electricity demand of its customers at the peak hour. To do so, a cooperative Stackelberg game is formulated, in which…
This paper explores the feasibility of social cooperation between prosumers within an energy network in establishing their sustainable participation in peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading. In particular, a canonical coalition game (CCG) is…
This paper proposes an optimal management strategy for a Renewable Energy Community defined according to the Italian legislation. The specific case study is composed by a set of houses equipped with smart appliances, that share a PV plant.…
Energy has been increasingly generated or collected by different entities on the power grid (e.g., universities, hospitals and householdes) via solar panels, wind turbines or local generators in the past decade. With local energy, such…
Energy cooperatives (ECs) such as residential and industrial microgrids have the potential to mitigate increasing fluctuations in renewable electricity generation, but only if their joint response is coordinated. However, the coordination…
In this paper, we propose a model predictive control based operation strategy that allows for power exchange between interconnected microgrids. Particularly, the approach ensures that each microgrid benefits from power exchange with others.…
This paper considers an optimal energy management problem for a network of interconnected microgrids. A model predictive control (MPC) approach is used to avoid capacity constraint violation and to cope with uncertainties of forecasted…
This paper proposes an energy management technique for a consumer-to-grid system in smart grid. The benefit to consumers is made the primary concern to encourage consumers to participate voluntarily in energy trading with the central power…
