A mathematical formulation of the joint economic and emission dispatch problem of a renewable energy-assisted prosumer microgrid
Uyikumhe Damisa, Nnamdi I. Nwulu and Yanxia Sun
Operational planning of prosumer microgrids with solar and wind energy sources is quite a complex task considering the intermittency of these sources and energy import/export from prosumers. Reserve capacities which can be reliably provided by dispatchable sources like conventional generators (CGs) may be needed to ensure reliability of the grid. However, these sources produce emissions which have adverse effects on the environment. Hence, emission curtailment should be incorporated in the operational planning of microgrids with these generators. In this paper, a mathematical ...
