| description | The technical complexity of organizing energy systems’ operation has recently been compounded by the complexity of reconciling the interests of individual entities involved in interactions. This study proposes a possible solution to the problem of modeling their relationships within a large system. Our solution takes into account multiple levels of interactions, imperfect information, and conflicting interests. We present a mathematical statement of the problem of optimal interactions between the centralized system and prosumers in the integrated energy system (IES) with due consideration of the layered architecture of the IES. The paper also contributes a model for arranging the interactions between centralized and distributed energy sources for cases when IES prosumers form coalitions. The implementation of this model is based on multi-agent techniques and cooperative game theory tools. In order to arrive at a rational arrangement of the interactions of prosumers in the IES, the model implements different approaches to the allocation of the coalition’s total payoff (the Shapley value, Modiclus, PreNucleolus solution concepts). Furthermore, we propose a criterion for deciding on the “best” imputation. We contribute a multi-agent system that implements the proposed model and use a test IES setup to validate the model by simulations. The results of the simulations ensure optimal interactions between the entities involved in the energy supply process within the IES and driven by their own interests. The results also elucidate the conditions that make it feasible for prosumers to form coalitions. |
