Implementation and Evaluation of IEC 61850-based Distributed Control System for Microgrid Applications
This paper presents a resilient, modular and scalable distributed control architecture for microgrid systems which uses distributed agents controlling individual loads, network switches, generators or storage devices to provide intelligent power management and efficient microgrid operation. The communication between the distributed agents is realized by implementing IEC 61850 data models and GOOSE messages. The data models include state representation, measurements at various points, and dispatch requests for reliable operation of microgrid control system. System resiliency is enhanced through implementing distributed agent architecture with no single point of failure.
