Optimal Scheduling for an Islanded Microgrid: A Case Study of Bach Long Vy Island
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Operating islanded microgrids with high renewable penetration is challenging due to stochastic generation and costly diesel reliance. To address this, this paper proposes a novel Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP)-based scheduling framework for the Bach Long Vy Island microgrid. The model explicitly integrates diesel unit commitment, renewable utilization, and battery degradation costs under strict operational constraints, utilizing real SCADA and meteorological data. Simulation results across day-ahead and week-ahead horizons demonstrate the framework's superior economic and operational performance. Notably, the proposed strategy achieves an 87.6% reduction in daily diesel fuel consumption, dropping from 1,258 L under actual dispatch to just 156 L, while ensuring system reliability and flexible battery management.
