READ MORE2 Modelling of the island microgrid. Consider the island microgrid system shown in Fig. 1, which consists of the WT, the photovoltaic (PV) array, the controllable MTs, the BES unit, the EV aggregator, several EVs, and the load. Each of component has its own objective and constraints and is described as follows.
READ MORE1. Introduction. Since multiple islands contain abundant renewable energy for clean power generation, many demonstration projects of island microgrids (IMGs) have been developed in recent years, e.g., Nanji IMG and Dongfushan IMG [1].Geographically, certain IMGs are close and have complementary characteristics.
