Abstract
Distributed energy storages (ESs) will be widely used in the future smart microgrids due to their continuous technology improvement and cost reduction. Meanwhile, the distributed control method also gains increasing attention for controlling distributed devices to protect user privacy and reduce computation burden compared with the centralized scheme. In this paper, a distributed control method of ESs is proposed for multi-time-step peak load shaving in a microgrid. Considering the ES efficiency is related to its power, an optimization is constructed to minimize the power loss during ES operations when performing peak load shaving function. By analyzing the net load curve and the ES available capacity, the multi-time-step peak load shaving problem is transformed into single-time-step ES operations at each time step. The Combine-Then-Adapt diffusion strategy is united with the consensus + innovation strategy to realize the peak load shaving in a fully distributed way. Case studies verify the efficiency of the proposed method.
