Abstract

With the spreading and applying of microgrids, the economic and environment friendly microgrid operations are required eagerly. For the dispatch of practical microgrids, power loss from energy conversion devices should be considered to improve the efficiency. This paper presents a two-stage dispatch (TSD) model based on the day-ahead scheduling and the real-time scheduling to optimize dispatch of microgrids. The power loss cost of conversion devices is considered as one of the optimization objectives in order to reduce the total cost of microgrid operations and improve the utility efficiency of renewable energy. A hybrid particle swarm optimization and opposition-based learning gravitational search algorithm (PSO-OGSA) is proposed to solve the optimization problem considering various constraints. Some improvements of PSO-OGSA, such as the distribution optimization of initial populations, the improved inertial mass update rule, and the acceleration mechanism combining the memory and community of PSO, have been integrated into the proposed approach to obtain the best solution for the optimization dispatch problem. The simulation results for several benchmark test functions and an actual test microgrid are employed to show the effectiveness and validity of the proposed model and algorithm.
