Day-Ahead Optimization Scheduling for Islanded Microgrid Considering Units Frequency Regulation Characteristics and Demand Response

With the increase of distributed generation penetration, the economic operation of microgrid has been fully developed. For islanded microgrid, due to the lack of large grid support and the limited capacity of the distributed generation (DG), the energy supply of microgrid may not meet the need of users in real time. Therefore, it is of great significance to solve the problem of insufficient power supply of islanded microgrid and improve the economy of its operation. Firstly, this paper analyses the frequency characteristics of DG, and establishes power models oriented to the frequency regulation characteristics of microgrid and introduces the mathematical model of DG. Then, an islanded microgrid day-ahead optimization scheduling model considering frequency regulation characteristics of units and demand response (DR) is proposed. The frequency characteristics of controllable units and DR are considered in the model, and different strategies are selected to analyze their impact on microgrid economy. The example shows that the optimization scheduling model of microgrid established in this paper can reduce the power supply pressure during peak load periods, alleviate the problem of insufficient power supply, and effectively improve the overall benefit of microgrid, which verifies the rationality of the model.
