A Distributed Stochastic Energy Management Framework Based-Fuzzy-PDMM for Smart Grids Considering Wind Park and Energy Storage Systems

Distributed optimization methods have been vastly investigated and approved by the researchers due to their major advantages including high accuracy, secured performance and low time-consuming structure compared to the centralized frameworks. This paper aims to provide a novel method based on fuzzy primal-dual method of multipliers (PDMM) to manage the optimal energy scheduling problem in the smart grids. The proposed method illustrates some unrivaled points of interest which are more preferable than the conventional alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) in terms of preciseness and convergence speed. The proposed smart grid is constructed of different components such as generators, wind park and storage devices as two of the most profitable and applicable energy sources in the power grids. In order to model the uncertainty effects, a stochastic method based on fuzzy cloud theory is developed to capture the high-dimension uncertainty in a more realistic way. The units are scheduled to exchange energy in the smart grid in a fully distributed manner when meeting the active/reactive generation and demand balance. Such an energy exchanging process continues until a proper solution would be found through which all the agents in the system are satiated. The simulation results on the IEEE 24-bus test system indicate that the proposed stochastic distributed energy management framework yields an error of less than 0.018% compared to the centralized approach.
