Robust optimization scheduling of microgrid considering a tiered carbon trading mechanism and flexible loads

Abstract

Abstract Considering the comprehensive demand response, stepwise carbon trading, and uncertainty of wind power output for cogeneration microgrids, relevant optimization scheduling research will be carried out. The electric heating load is divided into non-dispatchable electric heating load and dispatchable electric heating load. By introducing electric heating demand and tiered carbon trading, the economic and low-carbon operation of microgrids can be achieved. The fluctuation of the output of new energy units is reflected using probability scenario sets in statistics, and a robust optimization model with related distributions is constructed using the C&CG algorithm to calculate and solve the established model. The simulation and comparison of numerical examples show that the microgrid energy management scheme formulated by the model established in this paper has good economic and environmental friendliness, and it also simultaneously validated the superiority of distributed robust optimization methods over traditional optimization methods
