Abstract
Microgrid can also be presented as a set of distributed generation sources (DGS) of electricity that are set up close to consumers and intended for their electricity supply. The need for parallel operation of several generators arises for the following reasons: it is necessary to ensure increased power supply reliability. An algorithm, which calculates the optimal distribution of generator power to ensure the load power P, which corresponds to the minimum value of fuel consumption, was developed. The developed algorithm can be used for the following purposes evaluation and research of optimal energy generation; in control systems for power distribution between generators. On average, in the case of optimal distribution, the cost reduction is 5%.
