Energy Management System for Optimal Operatioin of Microgrids Network

This paper presents an Energy Management System (EMS) using JuMP-Julia for Mathematical Programing (MILP) with Gurobi Solver for a network of microgrids. The EMS evaluates the optimization problem for three scenarios namely grid-connected, grid-disconnected and stand-alone. The optimization considers Photovoltaic generation, load demand and import/export energy cost. Unused power in grid-disconnected scenario is more than standalone scenario. Battery charging is more frequent in grid connected scenario in comparison. Energy cost is minimized in this scenario.
