Multi-agent based simulation for Microgrid energy management

摘要

This paper presents a general multi-agent based model for the hierarchical and distributed energy control of a Microgrid. In this model, the agents under three different levels are classified and defined in detail. And based on the model, a novel simulation platform for the energy management system of the Microgrid (EMS-MG) is designed in terms of Client-Server and implemented under C++ Builder environment. Taking the generation automatic control for example and by the proposed model and implemented EMS-MG, a simulation result is shown to illustrate the operation process of the simulation platform and present the benefits of the proposed method.
