A Generic Scalable Method for Scheduling Distributed Energy Resources Using Parallelized Population-Based Metaheuristics

Energy Hub Gas: A Modular Setup for the Evaluation of Local Flexibility and Renewable Energy Carriers Provision

“…The provided control functionality for either Transmission System Operators (TSOs) or Distribution System Operators (DSOs) especially allows executing unit commitment schedules on a DER that can address re-dispatch 2.0 requirements for balancing generation and load or retrieving individual forecasting schedules of plants over 100 kW for planning. Internally, the EMS uses, in contrast to [16] a multi-objective optimization method [17], which converts the overall plant network schedule into an optimized set of schedules for each plant of the hub ecosystem. Thereby, the present approach opens the opportunity to fulfill a wide range of configurable objectives to either focus the EHG operation to the local needs.…”
