Popis: A microgrid power system is required to be controlled by electric power energy flowing through the interconnected power line that connects the microgrid and a large power system. Load dispatch for power sources in the microgrid is required, but large scale SCADA is not anticipated. This paper proposes an application of a mobile agent technology for the electric power output control. The reason is the agent has flexibility and expandability, and it is suitable for the control of the microgrid in viewpoint of small controller. A minimization of generation cost is considered as an evaluation function, and an equal incremental cost loading method is applied. Simulation is carried out using load data measured in the university building and demonstrates applicability of the proposed control.
