A Two-Stage Robust Energy Sharing Management for Prosumer Microgrid

The paper proposes a two-stage energy sharing framework for a new prosumermicrogrid with renewable energy generation, multiple storage units, and load shifting. In the first stage, a robust bilevel energy sharing model is formulated to provide a robust energy sharing schedule for prosumers and retailer overcoming the impact of the uncertainties of market prices and renewable energy. Through proper linearization techniques, the bilevel optimization problem is transformed into a single-level mixed integer linear programming problem that is practically solvable. In the second stage, an online optimization model is formulated for each prosumer to continually optimize its energy schedule at each hour according to the latest system state, and the proposed punishment mechanism is embedded for prosumers adjusting their previous energy sharing schedules. The simulation cases show the benefits of the energy sharing management framework.
