A Behavior-Based and Fast Convergence Energy Sharing Mechanism for Prosumers Community

Community energy sharing is an important way to encourage prosumers energy exchanges and exploit distributed resource flexibility. Previous researches suffer from low generalization, privacy leaking, heavy communication and computational burden. In this paper, a behavior-based and fast convergence energy sharing mechanism based on prosumers’ response information is proposed to fill these gaps. Specifically, a continuous description of prosumers’ behavior (CDPB) is applied to characterize their optimal response in a small price range. And the distributed algorithm based on response constraints (DBRC) is applied to achieve energy sharing with convergence and optimality, where only price and CDPB information are exchanged. Then, DBRC with accelerated convergence (DBRC-A) is proposed to reduce the time complexity and realize fast convergence. The efficiency, scalability, practicality of DBRC-based energy sharing mechanism are verified by numerical simulations on communities with different prosumers.
