Distributed Energy Management System with the Use of Digital Twin

At present, the transition from the traditional scheme of energy supply organization to new technologies and practices, implying decentralization, digitalization and intellectualization systems of energy-saving with the active involvement of consumers in the generation and management of all types of energy resources, is becoming increasingly relevant. According to forecasts of experts given in the study “Distributed energy in Russia: potential for development”, the architecture of a distributed energy (DE) system being created will include the following elements: manageable interfaces, “routers of energy”, and platforms of management and services. Most of the platform solutions being created include only a part of the elements from the list above. Existing solutions in the field of DE are based on algorithms that do not provide the flexibility of decision-making and the proper level of security. The purpose of our work is to develop the concept of the intelligent management system of DE facilities. The principle of modular programming using the kernel expansion method was taken as a basis for the development of the concept. The proposed intelligent management system operates in real-time and allows implementing new algorithms and methods of control of the power system, including the management of its active elements. The subsequent development of the project includes the development of the architecture of the software platform and the implementation of the management system of DE facilities. Using the results of the work will increase the efficiency of management of DE facilities.
