Load shedding in Energy Management of Micro grid

Abstract

The planning of dispatchable source such as diesel generator or storage devices and load shedding is the aim of the energy management for micro grid (MG) in islanded mode. This problem will be considered as a multi-objective problem in this paper. Besides, these objectives are conflicted such as: minimize cost for electricity production, minimize the amount of load to be shed. Applying the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm (PSO) and membership function of fuzzy set, the paper introduced the way to determine load amount be shed for N ahead moments and the strategy of generating the power in MG. The application for one MG with two storages and two generators is also presented.
