Fuel Consumption Minimization of a Microgrid

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 2005
A cost optimization scheme for a microgrid is presented. Prior to the optimization of the microgrid itself, several schemes for sharing power between two generators are compared. The minimization of fuel use in a microgrid with a variety of power sources is then discussed. The optimization of a small power system has important differences from the case
