    Abstract To address the intermittency of distributed energy resources and the coordinated operation of microgrid clusters, this paper investigates interaction strategies for microgrid clusters considering a hierarchical control framework. First, a refined microgrid operation model is developed, incorporating flexible load constraint mechanisms. Based on a price elasticity matrix, the model quantifies users’ multi-period response characteristics to electricity prices, forming an optimized microgrid dispatch model that accounts for demand-side response. Second, considering the hierarchical control framework, an interactive coupling model for microgrid clusters is proposed, and an optimal scheduling model is developed to enable mutual assistance among More >
