Distribution Robust Optimization Strategy for Multiple Microgrids with Shared Energy Storage Based on WGAN-GP Scenario Production

Under the “dual carbon” goals, this study focuses on realizing energy exchange among multiple microgrids via shared energy storage to promote sustainable energy transition. Accordingly, a distributed robust optimwhichization strategy is proposed in this paper. Addressing the uncertainty of distributed renewable energy sources within microgrids, the scenario set generated by the Wasserstein generative adversarial network with gradient penalty and pruned by the K-means++ clustering algorithm serves as the initial renewable energy scenario for the distributed robust optimization set. Combining Nash theory, a cooperative game operation model is constructed. The benefit distribution model based on contribution factors ensures a fair benefit allocation scheme. The parallelizable column and constraint generation algorithm is employed to enhance computational efficiency. Case studies demonstrate that compared to scenes produced by other methods, the proposed model has the lowest alliance operating cost. It more effectively captures renewable energy uncertainty and lowers system operational costs. The respective efficiency improvement rates for each microgrid are as follows: 4.6%, 5.0%, and 4.1%, ensuring a fair profit distribution scheme. This study provides a technical reference for realizing the sustainable development of a multiple microgrid system, contributing to the global goal of low-carbon energy transition and sustainable development.
