Optimal Bidding of a Microgrid Based on Probabilistic Analysis of Island Operation

  • Siyoung Lee,
  • Younggyu Jin,
  • Gilsoo Jang and
  • Yongtae Yoon

12 October 2016

Island operation of a microgrid increases operation survivability and reliability when there is a large accident in a main grid. However, because a microgrid typically has limited generation capability, a microgrid operator (MGO) has to take the risk...
