Flexible network planning of autonomy microgrid

Microsoft Word - Provisional Microgrid Planning

 Abstract— The optimal planning problem of provisional microgrids, as a new class of microgrids, is investigated in this paper. Unlike traditional microgrids, provisional microgrids do not possess the islanding capability and are dependent on one or more electrically connected microgrids, called coupled microgrids, for islanding purposes. Provisional microgrids can be considered as enablers of...

Microsoft Word - Microgrid Planning Under Uncertainty - final

This paper presents a model for the microgrid planning problem with uncertain physical and financial information. The microgrid planning problem investigates the economic viability of microgrid deployment and determines the optimal generation mix of distributed energy resources (DERs) for installation. Net metering is considered for exchanging power with the main grid and lowering the cost of u...

Flexible Transmission Network Planning Considering the Impacts of Distributed Generation

The restructuring of global power industries has introduced a number of challenges, such as conflicting planning objectives and increasing uncertainties, to transmission network planners. During the recent past, a number of distributed generation technologies also reached a stage allowing large scale implementation, which will profoundly influence the power industry, as well as the practice of ...

Flexible Autonomy in Holonic Agent Systems

For many DAI researchers, autonomy is a vital definitional prerequisite for an agent. We argue that a strict commitment o this view is too rigorous and insufficient in complex and large-scale systems and propose the holonic agent paradigm, where the degree of autonomy in an agent society is dynamically adjusted to the problem at hand. A holonic agent is an agent which is composed of subagents, ...
