Operation Scheduling of Distribution Network with Photovoltaic/Wind/Battery Multi‐Microgrids and Reconfiguration considering Reliability and Self‐Healing

International Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
In this paper, a new simultaneous framework of distribution network operation is proposed based on the scheduling of photovoltaic/wind/battery multi‐microgrids with network reconfiguration considering self‐healing. The objective function is considered to minimize the energy losses, and multi‐microgrids cost and improve the reliability indices including
