Abstract
We consider the problem of coordinating multiple Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) so as to supply energy to the grid while minimizing its variability around a reference profile that must also be optimized. We focus on the case when each DER is equipped with solar panels and a battery storage device, and jointly design the disturbance compensation strategies for charging and discharging the batteries on a one-day time horizon. To this purpose, we linearly parameterize the strategies and search for a solution minimizing the fluctuations of the energy exchange with the grid in steady-state, with a bound on their extent that holds in probability given the stochastic nature of the solar energy. Interestingly, the probability measure of the resulting chance-constrained optimization problem depends on the parameters of the disturbance compensation strategies, which makes the application of the scenario approach not standard. The proposed scenario-based solution is feasible for the original steady-state chance-constrained optimization problem and proves effective in numerical simulations.
