Recently, it becomes the head of concern for the Micro-grid to derive an optimal operational planning with regard to energy costs minimization, pollutant emissions reduction and better utilization of renewable energy sources (RESs), which accompanied by a Wind Turbine/Fuel Cell/Photovoltaic and Battery hybrid power source to level the power mismatch or to store the surplus of energy when its needed. In this paper, a new method based on multi-objective Modified Honey Bee Mating Optimization (MHBMO) algorithm is proposed and implemented to dispatch the generations in a typical micro-grid considering economy and emission as competitive objectives. The problem is formulated as a nonlinear constraint multi-objective optimization problem to minimize the total operating cost and the net emission simultaneously. The proposed algorithm is tested on a typical MG and its superior performance is compared to those from other evolutionary algorithms such as GA (Genetic Algorithm) and the original Honey Bee Mating Optimization (HBMO).

In isolated microgrid, renewable energy sources including photovoltaic and wind power, have the nature of intermittence and variability. Making a reasonable day-ahead generation schedule could improve system ability to cope with uncertainty. Therefore, based on day-ahead generation schedule, flexibility insufficiency rate is proposed considering economy and flexibility. Aiming at the lowest flexibility insufficiency rate and optimal operating cost, a day-ahead generation schedule optimizing model of isolated microgrid is established. Under multi-objective particle swarm optimization, Pareto optimal solution set of the day-ahead generation schedule is found. Simulation results of an isolated microgrid show that, day-ahead generation schedule made with the proposed method can improve ability of power system to cope with uncertainty and reduce economic losses.

By constructing a DC multi-microgrid system (MMGS) including renewable energy sources (RESs) and electric vehicles (EVs) to coordinate with the distribution network, the utilization rate of RESs can be effectively improved and carbon emissions can be reduced. To improve the economy of MMGS and reduce the network loss of the distribution network, a cooperative double-loop optimization strategy is proposed. The inner-loop economic dispatching reduces the daily operating cost of MMGS by optimizing the active power output of RESs, EVs, and DC/AC converters in MMGS. The outer-loop reactive power optimization reduces the network loss of the distribution network by optimizing the reactive power of the bidirectional DC/AC converters. The double-loop, which synergistically optimizes the economic cost and carbon emissions of MMGS, not only improves the economy of MMGS and operational effectiveness of the distribution network but also realizes the low-carbon emissions. The Across-time-and-space energy transmission (ATSET) of the EVs is considered, whose impact on economic dispatching is analyzed. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is applied to iterative solutions. Finally, the rationality and feasibility of the cooperative multi-objective optimization model are proved by a revised IEEE 33-node system.

Reducing environmental pollution and achieving economic operation have become focus of the research about micro-grid (MG). The minimum operating cost and the minimum pollution emission cost are taken as optimizing objects, and the multi-object optimizing model of MG is established. The membership function is used to process multi-objective function, then the conversion of multi-object to single object is achieved. Genetic Algorithm is used to optimize the operating state of each unit, then the best operation mode is formed.

With the increasing expansion of wind power, its impact on economic dispatch of power systems cannot be ignored. Adding a heat storage device to a traditional cogeneration unit can break the thermoelectric coupling constraint of the cogeneration unit and meet the economic and stable operation of a power system. In this paper, an economy-environment coordinated scheduling model with the lowest economic cost and the lowest pollutant emissions is constructed. Economic costs include the cost of conventional thermal power generating units, the operating cost of cogeneration units, and the operating cost of wind power. At the same time, green certificate costs are introduced into the economic costs to improve the absorption of wind power. Pollutant emissions include SO2 and NOx emissions from conventional thermal power units and cogeneration units. The randomness and uncertainty of wind power output are fully considered, and the prediction error of wind power is fuzzy treated according to the fuzzy random theory, and the electric power balance and spinning reserve fuzzy opportunity conditions are established, which are converted into the explicit equivalent. The improved multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) was used to solve the model. With this method, the validity of the model is verified by taking a system with 10 machines as an example.
