Design of an Energy Efficient Control System for Microgrid using Multi-Agent System

Abstract

This paper primary purpose is to use a multi-agent system (MAS) to develop a distributed microgrid automation model to realize complex organize or distributed microgrid energy management. This article introduces the energy-saving smart grid control system for network and island state control. A new concept is proposed to use distributed production (D.G.) to improve the power quality (P.Q.) in low-voltage networks. Compared to the traditional method, the conventional method requires using the committed property to recompense for power quality disturbances. The proposed idea is to form a microgrid (M.G.) that can be isolated from the public network operate on islands when disruptions occur. This article discusses the conditions for creating islands and proposes a control strategy for a small active network of microturbines, renewable energy, loads, or storage systems. This strategy assumes that the energy storage device is used as a network generating machine for the island operation. The central controller is used to monitor the network operation in network connection and island mode. The coordination between the agents ensures the Microgrid's current quality, power, or frequency by influential set points to improve the Microgrid's full operation. In this way, the Microgrid can efficiently integrate different D.G. resources (distributed power generation), particularly renewable power. It can provide emergency power that can be converted between island and connection states. Control and protection are the challenges. the proposed control architecture and strategies will be performed on the MATLAB Simulink platform.
