Distributed Coordination Control of Multiple VPPs in an Active Distribution Network

摘要

This study proposes a two-layer distributed coordination control method that controls multiple VPP (VPPs) in an active distribution network (ADN). The proposed two-layer control method reduces the dimensions and complexity of controlling an ADN. The first layer is responsible for controlling the total output power of multiple VPPs, maintaining the power balance between supply and demand of the whole system. The secondary layer is responsible for controlling the output power of each agent in the VPP to improve the economic benefits of the system In this control method, each agent obtains global information by performing information interaction with neighboring agents, so does not require a central processing agent. The validity and adaptability of the method are verified by a typical simulation example.
