Abstract
This chapter introduces an approach for Optimal Microgrid Operational Planning (OMOP) considering wind and photovoltaic power generations, combined heat and power generation units, electrical energy storages and interruptible loads. The problem explores the optimal maintenance scheduling and operational planning of a microgrid. A framework for OMOP is presented based on a two-level optimization procedure taking into account the system uncertainties. The formulated problem is modelled as a Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) problem and a heuristic optimization method is utilized for the first level problem; meanwhile, a MINLP solver is used for the second level problem. This model is applied to the 9-bus and 33-bus test systems and the numerical results assess the effectiveness of the introduced method.
