Title
Managing intelligent self-sustained electrical micro-grids
Abstract
Micro grids play an important role in the context of smart grids, improving the system reliability, resilience and stability. In case of micro grids disconnected from the main grid, due to geographical reasons or failure in the service provider, the self-sustainability management is a key issue. This paper discusses agent-based automation and control approaches to handle the self-sustainability in electrical stand-alone micro grids. The proposed agent-based model is applied to a case study and simulated using the Netlogo agent-based modelling platform, allowing to analyze different control and prediction strategies to improve their self-sustainability.
