Hierarchically Coordinated Uncertainty Mitigation of Multi-Microgrids in Distribution Network

Coordinated integration of renewables, STATCOMs, and V2G for hosting capacity improvement under uncertainty

Although incorporating renewable energy sources (RESs) into electric distribution networks (EDNs) offers significant sustainability and environmental benefits, improper management of RESs may threaten the technical performance of the network. To assess the safe integration of distributed generation (DG), the hosting...

Two-stage stochastic optimization for distribution networks considering demand response uncertainties

High penetration of distributed energy resources and uncertain loads creates financial and operational challenges for distribution networks. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a risk-averse, two-stage stochastic coordination framework for a distribution network interacting with the main grid. The day-ahea...

Event-Triggered Collaborative Control Models for Microgrid Systems

The unique ability to combine distributed renewable energy sources and enhance system reliability, resilience, and system flexibility has made microgrids a key component of modern power system. But the existing time-triggered control approaches involve periodic communication between the distributed controllers irrespec...

Adaptive and resilient protection coordination in smart microgrids enabled by a directional fault current limiter

Power systems, particularly distribution networks, are currently facing increasing challenges due to rising energy demand and the growing complexity of modern grids. The integration of Distributed Generators (DGs) within Microgrids (MGs) introduces additional fault current contributions, which significantly modify shor...

Uncertainty-Aware Estimation of Feasible Operation Region in Distribution Networks

A Closed-Loop Multi-Timescale Energy Management System for V2G-Enabled Commercial Building Microgrids

Vehicle-to-grid (V2G) integration in commercial building microgrids (CBMGs) offers a promising path for grid support, economic arbitrage, and resilience enhancement. However, practical implementation is hindered by the optimization–execution gap, where high-level aggregated commands fail to match low-level physical cha...
