The emergence of prosumers, as new players in the distribution networks, provides the opportunity to manage distributed energy resources (DERs) at a local level. However, designing an appropriate framework that empowers prosumers to manage their resources and trade energy with each other is a challenging task. This paper proposes a framework for joint scheduling and power trading of a community of prosumers in a transactive energy market (TEM). Prosumers perform day-ahead energy management to schedule their flexible energy resources to reduce their energy expenses. In the scheduling step, each prosumer indicates the expected surplus/deficit energy, which needs to be traded in different markets as well as the flexibility which can be provided in response to grid operator's requests. Then, in intra-day markets, prosumers can trade energy with either their neighbors in a peer-to-peer (P2P) market or the grid. Also, prosumers can participate in an event-driven flexibility market to respond to the requested flexibility by the grid operator. A distributed price-directed market clearing mechanism is presented, which ensures the privacy of prosumers and the market scalability. Simulation results show that energy trading in the community reduces prosumers energy costs, while the grid operator can utilize prosumers’ flexibility for managing grid constraints.

交易市场中生产者联合调度和功率交易的框架

专业生产者的出现，作为配电网络中的新参与者，为在本地管理分布式能源（DER）提供了机会。但是，设计适当的框架以使生产者能够管理自己的资源并彼此进行能源交易是一项艰巨的任务。本文提出了一个框架，用于在交互式能源市场（TEM）中联合安排生产者社区的调度和电力交易。生产者执行提前一天的能源管理，以安排其灵活的能源资源以减少能源消耗。在调度步骤中，每个生产者指示预期的盈余/赤字能量，需要在不同的市场中进行交易，以及可以响应电网运营商的要求而提供的灵活性。然后，在当日市场中 生产者可以在对等（P2P）市场或网格中与邻居进行能源交易。此外，生产者可以参与事件驱动的灵活性市场，以响应网格运营商要求的灵活性。提出了一种分布式的价格导向的市场清算机制，该机制可确保生产者的隐私和市场可扩展性。仿真结果表明，社区中的能源交易减少了生产者的能源成本，而电网运营商可以利用生产者的灵活性来管理电网约束。这确保了生产者的隐私和市场的可扩展性。仿真结果表明，社区中的能源交易减少了生产者的能源成本，而电网运营商可以利用生产者的灵活性来管理电网约束。这确保了生产者的隐私和市场的可扩展性。仿真结果表明，社区中的能源交易减少了生产者的能源成本，而电网运营商可以利用生产者的灵活性来管理电网约束。
