Abstract
Over the last few decades, the use of renewable and clean energy sources has been the core of attention of the researchers. Besides, utilization of the energy hubs as a great innovation for future multi-carrier energy systems is well perceived for integrating intermittent sources of energy into the energy systems, which is surged and bolded in recent years. In this regard, this paper proposes an effective distributed energy management framework for modeling and optimal operation management of clean smart islands based on primal-dual method of multipliers. The primal-dual method of multipliers approach has shown superior performance compared to the alternating method of multipliers for distributed optimization. In this study, two different agents including a smart energy hub and a microgrid comprises of renewable and clean energy sources are considered in the smart island. These two distinct energy systems are assumed to be equipped with communication apparatuses and are intended to negotiate over the energy they need in a proper and completely distributed manner. Results show the effectiveness, accuracy and applicability of the approach for energy communication.
