On the role of prosumers owning rooftop solar photovoltaic in reducing the impact on transformer’s aging due to plug-in electric vehicles charging

Optimal probabilistic scenario‐based operation and scheduling of prosumer microgrids considering uncertainties of renewable energy sources

“…-In this paper, the following 5 cases are considered based on the uncertainty modeling method: -Case 1: The deterministic optimization problem 25 is considered. -Case 2: The MCS-based probabilistic optimization problem like 75 is considered. -Case 3: The scenario-based optimization problem using the k-means scenario reduction algorithm is considered.…”

Distribution asset management through coordinated microgrid scheduling

“…Dispatchable DG units are subject to the minimum up and down time limits, represented by (20)- (23). Constraints (20), (22) and (21), (23) represent the minimum up/ down time for inter-day and intra-day intervals, respectively. Constraints (24) and (25), respectively, define the minimum and maximum limits of the DES charging and discharging.…”

“…Note that the adjustable loads utilised in this paper are responsive to price changes and controlling signals from the microgrid controller so that no compensation costs are considered. It should be mentioned that b = 0, which would appear in (17), (19), (21), (23), (28), (31), (33), (36), represents the last day of the previous scheduling horizon, and T represents the last scheduling hour, i.e. T = 24 h.…”

A Permissioned Blockchain System to Reduce Peak Demand in Residential Communities via Energy Trading: A Real-World Case Study

“…However, a significant limitation of HEMS' is that they typically provide local control of a single home, and they do not have observability of the entire residential community [5]. This leads to uncoordinated operation of DERs within the community, which may result in major increases in peak demand and overloading of transformers when EVs and BESSs are charging coincidentally [6]. Thus, new mechanisms are needed to facilitate the coordination of DERs at the community level, while also taking the local transformer capacity into account.…”
