MICROGRID CONTROL SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A microgrid control system for controlling operations of a plurality of electric power facilities, comprising:
- a power supply machine activating and stopping planning portion; and
an economical load distributing portion for determining command values associated with allocations of a load to the power supply facilities;
wherein said power supply machine activating and stopping planning portion hasan output load forecasting function for forecasting output amounts of the power supply facilities and amounts of load on the load facilities,output load predictive error forecasting function for forecasting errors of the forecasted outputs and the forecasted amounts of load,a power supply activation amount determining function for determining a total amount of output of power supply facilities to be activated, based on results of the predictions made by the output load forecasting function and the output load predictive error forecasting function, anda power supply facility selecting function for selecting power supply facilities to be activated, based on the determined total amount of output and on characteristic information about the power supply facilities.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a system for controlling microgrid facilities. In particular, the microgrid control system provided is capable of controlling multiple facilities according to characteristics of the facilities in order to achieve economic efficiency, environmental friendliness, and continued operability. The microgrid control system for controlling the operations of the multiple power facilities is provided with: a power supply activation/suspension planning unit that has a prediction unit for predicting outputs or loads of power supply facilities or load facilities and a prediction unit for predicting prediction errors contained therein; and an economical load allocation unit that determines command values related to the distribution of loads to be borne by currently running power supply facilities.
