English abstract:
Information and communication technology plays a crucial role in increasing reliability and efficiency of our critical infrastructure. This paper presents a distributed multi-agent system for switching optimization in low-voltage power grids. As opposed to centralized approaches, the overall optimization procedure is not implemented in a single node but emerges from the behavior and interaction of the participating agents. Thereby, the communication strictly follows a predefined interaction protocol. Losses are reduced by balancing loads among all available transformers. Based on a small distribution network, an exemplary optimization run is discussed in detail. Furthermore, FNCS, a state-of-the-art co-simulation framework, is used to evaluate the actual potential for energy saving.
