Stochastic multi-objective dynamic dispatch of renewable and CHP-based islanded microgrids

摘要

Micro-grids (MGs) are practical solutions for integrating distributed energy resources (DERs) in order to supply electrical and heat demands. In this study, a stochastic model for optimal management of combined heat and power (CHP)-based MGs considering economic, environmental and reliability aspects have been proposed. Two sources of uncertainty including forecast errors of electrical load demand and wind power are considered in scenario generation process using roulette wheel mechanism. Availabilities of units are taken into account to model reliability using capacity outage probability table (COPT). For solving such non-linear, non-convex and complicated stochastic problem, exchange market algorithm (EMA) and the weighted sum method are employed for combining three conflicting objectives and solving multi-objective problem as a single objective problem. Fuzzy satisfying method is applied to choose best compromise solution. The main goal of the stochastic dynamic reliable economic emission dispatch (SDREED) problem is to determine output of each generating unit so that fuel cost and amount of emission are minimized while the electrical demand is provided by more reliable units and operational constraints are met. The output of stochastic problem gives better sight for generation scheduling of MGs. The obtained results show the effectiveness and ability of the proposed method in solving SDREED.
