Performance Analysis of Microgrid Operations by Using Multi Agent Arrangement

Abstract

The electric power system supports the operation of developments & economic growth of the country. The transition of power system towards deregulation & profit driven operation will led to a decrease of reverse & reliability of entire power network. It is necessary to design reliable & autonomous reconfigurable electric power system to secure against natural as well as man-made disasters. The adequate and secure power system concept can be achieved by intelligent or smart micro grid. The smart grid system incorporated with several interconnected sub systems those having cellular structure and capable to operate autonomously during system faults. Every sub system called cell have enough power generating capacity to meet critical load demand with ability of internal communication among generation, transmission, distribution and controlling devices. The smart grid will supply uninterrupted power supply to higher priority loads to maintain integrity of critical infrastructure. This paper presents concepts, components, architect and procedure to implement smart grid system.
