Popis: International audience; – The aim of this paper is to develop tools for the Optimal Power Flow Management Control (OPFMC) in a microgrid (MG). It consists of a photovoltaic system, an energy storage system, a gas turbine, and a main grid (energy exchange). Unlike the conventional approaches, which are limited to the distribution of the active power, this paper relies on an electrical modeling system in order to coordinate and to optimize both the active and the reactive power flow using discrete controls. The proposed optimal power management strategy has two objectives: (i) it aims at forecasting, over a time horizon of 24-hours, the optimal distribution of the active and the reactive power required for each power source connected to the microgrid. The proposed management incorporates the consumption forecasts, the weather, and the tariffs; (ii) it aims at reducing the solicitation of the main grid while taking into consideration the requested reactive power. This is done by using dynamic programming based on Bellman algorithm. Such management has been tested by simulation in a Matlab/Simulink environment and its performance has been compared to the conventional management strategy.
