Online Battery Storage Management via Lyapunov Optimization in Active Distribution Grids

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Cong Wang, Eleni Stai

We consider low run-time complexity power management in distribution grids with renewable energy sources (RESs) and batteries, where forecasts are unavailable. We propose iterative Lyapunov Real-time Control (iLypRC), a fast online algorithm, which does no ...
