Popis
Shrnutí:Economic dispatch problem (EDP) is a fundamental optimization problem of power systems. With the penetration of renewable energy sources in microgrids, this paper proposes a distributed algorithm based on consensus theory to solve the EDP with a quadratic cost function. The method takes advantage of the fact that incremental costs need to be equal for all buses at optimal output power values. Thus, the incremental cost of each bus is selected as a consensus variable and the local mismatch between total demand and generation is assigned as a feedback variable to meet demand constraints. Unlike the existing related works, the feedback gains for the feedback variables are different and time-varying. Using multi-parameter perturbation theory and graph theory, the convergence of the algorithm is proved. Furthermore, the upper bounds of the feedback gains are given theoretically, and we obtain that the algorithm converges to the optimal solution at a rate governed by the second largest eigenvalue of the system matrix. Meanwhile, the algorithm is a fully distributed algorithm without a leader or a virtual command node. The simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the algorithm even though there is a demand change and generator damage. Some simulation results intuitively illustrate how the convergence speed changes with the feedback gains.
