Abstract
With the continuous deepening of power market reforms, studying the interaction of multi-stakeholder in multi-microgrid (MMG) energy trading is of great significance to improve the economic performance of the distribution network. In order to analyze the economic optimization method of multiple stakeholders in the distributed energy system, this paper proposes a multi-stakeholder benefit optimization method based on Stackelberg game theory (SGT), and establishes a local market energy transaction model. The model is composed of external distribution network, leader-intermediary agent (IA) and follower-microgrids (MGs), and uses the master–slave game method to solve the optimization strategy. Under this mode, the profit of each stakeholder in MMG increased by 2.64%, 4.24%, 1.38% respectively. The case results show that based on the method in this paper, multi-stakeholder in MMG can improve economic performance and can increase the level of energy autonomy of MMG.
