Abstract

Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading is seen as a promising method for distributed transactive energy (TE) management. Since distribution network is used for electricity transfer, physical constraints should be imposed during the P2P trading. In this paper, we propose a P2P-based distributed TE management approach considering distribution network constraints and product differentiation for P2P energy trading between different buses. A multi-period AC optimal power flow (OPF) model is used to monitor power flow in distribution system, and the exactness of second-order cone relaxation is recovered by the convex-concave procedure, making sure that P2P transactions do not violate network constraints. Moreover, we propose a fully-decentralized variant of alternating direction method of multipliers for clearing P2P transactions in a fully-decentralized manner under AC power flow constraints. Our proposed variant does not need any interactions with the central supervisor in comparison with the traditional one. Finally, numerical results on IEEE 33-bus and 141-bus distribution systems verify the effectiveness of our proposed method in ensuring physical feasibility, lowering data communication and protecting data privacy during P2P energy trading.
