"Robust Optimal Microgrid Management using a Virtual Battery System for" by Harun Or Rashid Howlader, Hasan Masrur et al.
A virtual battery (VB) model is proposed in this paper to facilitate in the management of a smart microgrid. A cluster of controllable load and generations (CLGs) is referred to as VB, and it operates similarly as the battery storage that reduces the size of the energy storage device (ESS). Aggregators use the VB to distribute power among CLGs when the grid has excess or shortage capacity. The management of a microgrid with renewable energy instability and VB is a difficult problem; as a result,...
