Stackelberg Game Model for Optimal Dispatching of Electricity Consumption for Community Microgrid Considering Demand Response Mechanism

Community microgrid is a kind of new power system that acts as an intermediary between community consumers and the grid, playing an important role in realising distributed autonomy and improving the power supply level. To achieve optimal power dispatch in community microgrid, this paper establishes a Stackelberg game model with the community microgrid operator (CMO) as the leader and the consumers aggregator as the follower, and combines the internal pricing method with the demand response mechanism. The paper uses a combination of genetic algorithm and solver to solve the Stackelberg game model to maximise the interests of all parties. Simulation results show that the model can secure the interests of each game subject, balance power supply and demand, and promote peak shaving and valley filling of electrical loads.
