Abstract

A particular methodology is developed, in the context of peer-to-peer (P2P) exchange, with respect to microgrid resilience, economic benefits and CO2 emissions. Two major users group are defined: a) battery owners and b) grid dependent users. The aim is to use the energy from the batteries in order to cover the energy mismatches of the microgrid instead of using the grid. A “zone” is defined where P2P exchange is enabled. Our approach is also implemented in two layers at the same time 1) physical which represents the electrical infrastructure and 2) communication level, where the exchange of information occurs in order to implement the suggested methodology. Four different scenarios are examined where electrical or communication faults occur. The obtained results showed that the implementation of this strategy can enhance system resilience without compromising the economic benefits and the carbon emissions reduction.
