Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Under the environment of globalized energy restructuring and achieving the goal of “peak carbon and carbon neutrality”, this paper proposes an optimal scheduling method based on the improved cosine algorithm for island microgrids, which relies on diesel generators, resulting in high carbon emissions and high operating costs. First, an optimal scheduling model for island microgrids is established with the objective of minimizing the system operating cost, which comprehensively considers the carbon emission penalty, power balance constraints, equipment operation constraints, and the volatility of renewable energy sources. Secondly, the traditional sine–cosine algorithm is improved by introducing an adaptive adjustment factor, elite retention strategy and chaotic mapping initialization population in order to solve its shortcomings of falling into local optimums and insufficient convergence accuracy when solving high-dimensional complex problems. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified by simulation experiments. The results show that the method in this paper reduces the total system cost to 2994.2 yuan (6.5% lower than the baseline scenario), reduces the carbon emission to 968.8 kg (55.1% lower), and improves the wind and light consumption rate to 98.84%, which is an obvious advantage and provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the realization of the low-carbon and economic operation of island microgrids.
