چکیده

Nowadays, the use of networked control system (NCS) technologies in modern power systems is on the rise owing to the expansion of electric energy distribution systems and the advent and development of new communication-based technologies. However, the modern network-based energy systems are constructed from some coupled subsystems interconnected via their states and share their information through the communication networks featuring inherent time delays. In this article, an efficacious multi-agent-based cooperative distributed economic model predictive control is developed to damp the frequency fluctuations and reduce the cost of consumed electricity in networked-based smart energy systems by considering communication network inherent delays. In this regard, a buffer-based moving horizon strategy with an estimator is suggested to estimate the own states of every sub-system and the coupled states, i.e., those that their information exchange among sub-systems and their values are not accessible due to communication time delays. Moreover, the boundedness of the estimation error and the stability of the closed-loop system are established by this method. The usability and proficiency of the suggested scheme are proved by applying the developed approach for an interconnected power grid.
