Optimal Scheduling Of A Microgrid With Demand Response Resources, Daniela Proto, Guido Carpinelli, Fabio Mottola

Daniela Proto

A larger penetration of plug-in electric vehicle (EV) fleets and of data centres in the microgrids (μGs) is foreseeable in the near future. Their presence and the presence of distributed generation (DG) units represent a challenge for system operators in that they must identify approaches for using these distributed resources that allow them to operate the grid in a more efficient and economical way. With particular reference to EVs and data centres, it must be noted that they are equipped with storage devices that potentially could result in the modification of the daily load profile of μGs by shifting peak …
