Real-time Distributed Economic Dispatch forDistributed Generation Based on Multi-Agent System
Abstract
The distributed economic dispatch for distributed generation is formulated as a optimization problem with equality and inequality constraints. An effective distributed approach based on multi-agent system is proposed for solving the economic dispatch problem in this paper. The proposed approach consists of two stages. In the first stage, an adjacency average allocation algorithm is proposed to ensure the generation-demand equality. In the second stage, a local replicator dynamics algorithm is applied to achieve nash equilibrium for the power dispatch game. The approach is implemented in a fully distributed manner with local computation and communication among neighboring agent. The feasibility and effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated by a numerical test system.
