Abstract: Unlike existing Energy Management System (EMS)
which usually runs from a centralized server system at Power
System Control Centre and operates large generating units and a
transmission system via dedicated communication channels, this
project aims to develop a low-cost, scalable, hierarchical
transactive energy management system for use by load and supply
aggregators of distribution systems. The loads and distributed
energy resources are small in capacity but large in quantity.
The proposed system considers three sets of inputs: supply side
(e.g. intermittent PV system, bi-directional storage battery as
supply, etc), demand side (e.g. variable controllable loads,
storage battery as load, etc) and price fluctuations in
real-time energy and reserve markets. A two-stage optimization
technique is proposed for managing different types of battery
energy storage systems. A model predictive control (MPC)-based
controller scheme that is capable of coordinating hybrid energy
storage systems and intermittent energy sources is validated via
control-hardware-in-the-loop (CHIL) test setup in the lab. A
decision support tool that can facilitate participation of loads
in a demand response market is designed and proposed for use by
load and supply aggregators.
Biogrpahy: H. B. GOOI received his PhD degree from Ohio
State University in 1983. He was Assistant Professor with
Lafayette College, Easton, and was Senior Engineer with Empros
(now Siemens), Minneapolis, where he was responsible for the
design, testing and coordination of domestic and international
energy management system projects. In 1991, he joined School of
Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Nanyang Technological
University, Singapore as Senior Lecturer. Since 1999, he has
been an Associate Professor and was Deputy Head of Power
Engineering Division, during 2008–2014. His current research
interests include microgrid energy management systems dealing
with storage, renewable energy sources, electricity market and
spinning reserve. Since 2016, he has been Editor of IEEE
Transactions on Power Systems and Editor of IEEE Power
Engineering Letters.
Dr. Gooi is a Senior Member of IEEE and a registered
