Abstract

More and more microgrids, energy storage systems, and other emerging entities are integrated into active distribution networks. However, a microgrid is characterized by autonomous operation and privacy protection. The rapid development of equipment such as shared energy storage brings strong uncertainty to a traditional dispatcher. The observability and controllability of the distribution system decrease, and traditional regulatory methods are no longer applicable. To deal with the above challenges, a distributed collaborative operation optimization method of multilateral participants is proposed. Guided by the dynamic time-of-use electricity price, the collaborative operation of multilateral participants can be realized. Firstly, the cooperative operation architecture is established considering the dynamic time-of-use electricity price. In this architecture, the residual capacity of shared energy storage is used for arbitrage by storing electricity at low electricity prices and generating electricity at high electricity prices. Then, the optimization operation models of a microgrid alliance, shared energy storage, and an active distribution network are established. The final operation scheme and the dynamic time-of-use price of the distribution network are formulated through the cyclic iteration among the three participants. Finally, a case study is carried out to analyze the optimization effect of each participant with the proposed method. It is found that the overall interests and the interests of each participant can be taken into account effectively and the consumption of renewable energy can be promoted by the method proposed in the paper. In addition, an oscillation phenomenon is found during the distributed collaborative operation, and the strategy to eliminate the oscillation phenomenon is given.
