ABSTRACT
A Micro-Grid (MG) is envisaged with ever increasing distributed energy resources (DERs) e.g. distributed generation, demand response and electrical vehicles. This paper suggests a method based on multi-objective modelling for day-ahead scheduling of Networked-MGs based distribution network in the presence of different DERs and also this method is able to find the daily reconfiguration instants. The proposed scheme is solved using NSGA-II from distribution network operator viewpoints, who is responsible for providing power demand in higher reliability level and lower costs. Besides, in the suggested scheme voltage deviation and voltage stability as efficient power quality criteria in distribution networks and emission pollutant reduction are incorporated as independent objective functions. Moreover, to quantify the influence of different load models, a 33-node distribution network is adopted with a load class mix of residential, industrial and commercial loads. Eventually, the obtained results are reported which verify the efficiency of the proposed method.
