Abstract
This paper addresses dispersed power networks composed of dispersed power sources and demand points. For the networks, we consider a problem of balancing power supply and demand in a decentralized manner. To solve this, we propose a new control method called multicast control. We first formulate the problem from the viewpoint of the multicast control. Second, we propose a set of multicast controllers and local controllers. Then it is proven that our method asymptotically balances the supply and demand with probability 1. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by numerical simulation.
