Abstract

This paper proposes a new method to manage the active power in the distribution systems, a function under the framework of the active network (AN) concept. An application of the graph theory is introduced to cope with the optimal power generation (DGs/Cells dispatch) and interarea power flows. The algorithm is implemented in a distributed way supported by the multi-agent system (MAS) technology. Simulations show how the method works in cases of optimal operation, congestion management, and power generation cost change.
