CONTROL SYSTEM WITH LOAD SELECTION STRATEGY THAT MINIMIZES LOAD OVERSHED

摘要

Systems and methods described herein may be used to search for a minimum load overshed in a power system. For example, a control system includes memory and a processor operatively coupled to the memory. The processor may obtain an amount of power consumed by each load in a total set of loads in a microgrid. The processor may detect a difference between the amount of power generated and the amount of power consumed. The processor may select a subset of loads to shed from the total set of loads by searching a tree of potential load shed amounts to substantially balance the amount of power generated with the amount of power consumed. The processor may send one or more signals to one or more electronic devices to cause the selected subset of loads to be shed.
