To accommodate the advent of microgrids (MG) managing distributed energy resources (DER) in distribution systems, an interactive two-stage joint retail electricity market mechanism is proposed to provide an effective platform for these prosumers to proactively join in retail transactions. Day-ahead stochastic energy trading between the distribution system operator (DSO) and MGs is conducted in the first stage of a centralized retail market, where a chance-constrained uncertainty distribution locational marginal price (CC-UDLMP) containing the cost of uncertainty precautions is used to settle transactions. In the second stage, a novel intra-day peer-to-peer-based (P2P) flexibility transaction pattern is implemented between MGs in local flexibility markets under the regulation of DSO to eliminate power imbalances caused by rolling-based estimates whilst considering systematic operations. A fully distributed iterative algorithm is presented to find the equilibrium solution of this two-stage sequential game framework. Moreover, in order to enhance the versatility of this algorithm, an improved Lp-box alternating direction methods of multipliers (ADMM) algorithm is used to efficiently resolve the first-stage stochastic economic dispatch problem with a mixed-integer second-order cone structure. It is verified that the proposed market mechanism can effectively improve the overall market efficiency under uncertainties.

The emerging paradigm of interconnected microgrids advocates energy trading or sharing among multiple microgrids. It helps make full use of the temporal availability of energy and diversity in operational costs when meeting various energy loads. However, energy trading might not completely absorb excess renewable energy. A multi-energy management framework including fuel cell vehicles, energy storage, combined heat and power system, and renewable energy is proposed, and the characteristics and scheduling arrangements of fuel cell vehicles are considered to further improve the local absorption of the renewable energy and enhance the economic benefits of microgrids. While intensive research has been conducted on energy scheduling and trading problem, a fundamental question still remains unanswered on microgrid economics. Namely, due to multi-energy coupling, stochastic renewable energy generation and demands, when and how a microgrid should schedule and trade energy with others, which maximizes its long-term benefit. This paper designs a joint energy scheduling and trading algorithm based on Lyapunov optimization and a double-auction mechanism. Its purpose is to determine the valuations of energy in the auction, optimally schedule energy distribution, and strategically purchase and sell energy with the current electricity prices. Simulations based on real data show that each individual microgrid, under the management of the proposed algorithm, can achieve a time-averaged profit that is arbitrarily close to an optimum value, while avoiding compromising its own comfort.
The proposed open-source Power Market Tool (POMATO) aims to enable research on interconnected modern and future electricity markets in the context of the physical transmission system and its secure operation. POMATO has been designed to study capacity allocation and congestion management (CACM) policies of European zonal electricity markets, especially flow-based market coupling (FBMC). For this purpose, POMATO implements methods for the analysis of simultaneous zonal market clearing, nodal (N-k secure) power flow computation for capacity allocation, and multi-stage market clearing with adaptive grid representation and redispatch. The computationally demanding N-k secure power flow is enabled via an efficient constraint reduction algorithm. POMATO provides an integrated environment for data read-in, pre- and post-processing and interactive result visualization. Comprehensive data sets of European electricity systems compiled from Open Power System Data and Matpower Cases are part of the distribution. POMATO is implemented in Python and Julia, leveraging Pythons easily maintainable data processing and user interaction features and Julias well readable algebraic modeling language, superior computational performance and interfaces to open-source and commercial solvers.
The goal of this paper is the experimental validation of a gray-box equivalent modeling approach applied to microgrids. The main objective of the equivalent modeling is to represent the dynamic response of a microgrid with a simplified model. The main contribution of this work is the experimental validation of a two-step process, composed by the definition of a nonlinear equivalent model with operational constraints, adapted to the microgrid environment, and the identification procedure used to define the model parameters. Once the parameters are identified, the simplified model is ready to reproduce the microgrid behavior to voltage and frequency variations, in terms of active and reactive power exchanges at the point of common coupling. To validate the proposed approach, a set of experimental tests have been carried out on a real LV microgrid considering different configurations, including both grid-connected and islanded operating conditions. Results show the effectiveness of the proposed technique and the applicability of the model to perform dynamic simulations.
This paper proposes a hybrid dimming scheme based on joint LED selection and precoding design (TASP-HD) for multiple-user (MU) multiple-cell (MC) visible light communications (VLC) systems. In TASP-HD, both the LED selection and the precoding of each cell can be dynamically adjusted to reduce the intra- and inter-cell interferences while satisfying illumination constraints. First, a MU-MC-VLC system model is established, and then a sum-rate maximization problem under dimming level and illumination uniformity constraints is formulated. In this studied problem, the indices of activated LEDs and precoding matrices are optimized, which result in a complex non-convex mixed integer problem. To solve this problem, the original problem is separated into two subproblems. The first subproblem, which maximizes the sum-rate of users via optimizing the LED selection with a given precoding matrix, is a mixed integer problem solved by the penalty method. With the optimized LED selection matrix, the second subproblem which focuses on the maximization of the sum-rate via optimizing the precoding matrix is solved by the Lagrangian dual method. Finally, these two subproblems are iteratively solved to obtain a convergent solution. Simulation results verify that in a typical indoor scenario under a dimming level of 70%, the mean bandwidth efficiency of TASP-HD is 4.8 bit/s/Hz and 7.13 bit/s/Hz greater than AD and DD, respectively.
This paper proposes a cyber-physical cooperative mitigation framework to enhance power systems resilience under extreme events, e.g., earthquakes and hurricanes. Extreme events can simultaneously damage the physical-layer electric power infrastructure and the cyber-layer communication facilities. Microgrid (MG) has been widely recognised as an effective physical-layer response to such events, however, the mitigation strategy in the cyber lay is yet to be fully investigated. Therefore, this paper proposes a resilience-oriented centralised-to-decentralised framework to maintain the power supply of critical loads such as hospitals, data centers, etc., under extreme events. For the resilient control, controller-to-controller (C2C) wireless network is utilised to form the emergency regional communication when centralised base station being compromised. Owing to the limited reliable bandwidth that reserved as a backup, the inevitable delays are dynamically minimised and used to guide the design of a discrete-time distributed control algorithm to maintain post-event power supply. The effectiveness of the cooperative cyber-physical mitigation framework is demonstrated through extensive simulations in MATLAB/Simulink.
