Distributed energy sharing in energy internet through distributed averaging

This paper proposes a distributed averaging iteration algorithm for energy sharing in microgrids of Energy1 Internet based on common gossip algorithms. This algorithm is completely distributed and only requires communications between neighbors. Through this algorithm, the Energy Internet not only allocates the energy effectively based on the load condition of grids, but also reasonably schedules the energy transmitted between neighboring grids. This study applies theoretical analysis to discuss the condition in which this algorithm can finally reach supply-and-demand balance. Subsequently, the related simulation validates the performance of the algorithm under various conditions.
