“…In most urban areas, there is a high concentration of pollutants in the air, which is why environmental policies are legislated to take action when environmental contingencies (EC) arise. When these situations occur, the operations of the diesel generators are affected by having to reduce the emission of pollutants or, where appropriate, regenerate the gases emitted, which can be complemented through a program to reduce emissions demand energy (EDR), which has a direct mitigating impact on power generation from the burning of fossil fuels [8]. The inclusion of an EDR generates more adequate operating options regarding supply and demand of the microgrid [8].…”

According to [9,10], EDR programs lead to optimization of microgrids costs and an improvement in operations, providing flexibility to the network and helping to mitigate the stochastic effect of the RES [10].…”

“…In [11], it is established that one of the most important aspects for microgrids to be able to meet their objectives is their proper management through a design and control strategy to optimize the operation of microgrids and maximize their economic and energy management potential; therefore, the economic dispatch approach is useful to achieve this. In [8], a microgrid proposal was made that considers renewable and conventional energy sources; however, the proposal does not consider EDR and environmental contingency situations and also does not take into account the aspect of the cost of regeneration of contaminants.…”

Due to the importance that organizations and governments have placed on environmental pollution and the policies that force organizations to comply with environmental standards, the use of renewable energy sources to meet energy requirements becomes important. The problem of the economic dispatch consists of satisfying the energy demand of the clients, establishing the most convenient source of supply at each moment, considering the established objective (minimize the operating cost of the microgrid) and satisfying the established restrictions. This paper addresses the problem of economic dispatch in a microgrid with a mathematical programming approach. The proposal to meet the energy demand considers: (a) interconnection to the main grid, (b) conventional diesel generators, (c) a photovoltaic system, (d) a hydroelectric turbine, (e) a wind system, (f) a battery-based storage system, (g) capacity to exchange energy with the main grid, (h) incentive for reducing electricity demand (EDR) by customers when an environmental contingency occurs and (i) regeneration of pollutants emitted by conventional generators. The proposal is implemented in the Lingo 17 software. The results show that by including a BESS and the EDR program, it is possible to save between 18% and 75% of the costs of the objective function and stop emitting a little more than 195 kg of pollutants into the environment.

Microgrids have a strong ability to generate local power and consume renewable energy, which can solve the problems of power supply shortages and greenhouse gas emissions created in the process of social development. The honeycombed active distribution network (HADN) can flexibly, independently, and interconnectedly operate microgrids through power exchange stations, so appropriate HADN dispatch can produce increased low-carbon benefits than general microgrids. In this study, we first designed a model for optimizing HADN with the lowest carbon emission as the target, then we introduced the concept of carbon emission flow into the optimization process to determine the carbon emission level of each element. Finally, we illustrated and verified the proposed model by a HADN composed of three microgrids. The optimization results of the case study showed that by scheduling the DGs within the microgrids, the total carbon emissions of the system were reduced from 123,328.1 to 117,688 kg CO2; the system with a HADN structure was able to produce only 110,958 kg CO2 and effectively reduce carbon emissions by 10%, which proved that HADN can be scheduled with high flexibility and provides increased low-carbon performance through the proposed optimization dispatch method.
