A Feedback Stackelberg Game-Based Carbon Right Sharing Strategy for Microgrids

In order to enhance economic benefits of different stakeholders while effectively suppressing the growth of carbon emissions, a game-based pricing mechanism considering the supply-demand feedback information is designed for carbon emission right (CER) sharing among microgrids (MGs). Then, a novel CER sharing framework based on the feedback Stackelberg game for microgrid clusters (MGCs) is proposed to explore the deep decarbonization of energy consumption by utilizing dynamic interaction properties among trading parties. Meanwhile, the existence and uniqueness of feedback Stackelberg equilibrium (SE) are proved. Moreover, a multi-price coupled demand response (DR) is developed based on dynamic changes in electricity prices and carbon prices, which can further exploit the low-carbon potential of the demand side. Numerical results show the validity of the proposed strategy in improving the low-carbon and economic performance of MGs’ operation.
