An engine system and methods for dispatching and controlling a plurality of distributed energy resources, e.g., a plurality of microgrids, involving: a server; a controller configured to operably couple with the server and the plurality of DERs; and at least one processor configured to operably couple with the server and the controller, the at least one processor configured to operate the server and the controller in an online mode and an offline mode, whereby at least one of forecast information and real-time information is providable, operational expense is reducible, and at least one new revenue generation avenue is establishable.

Engine system and methods for dispatching and controlling distributed energy resources

A multi-layer architecture for control of distributed energy resources (DER) includes a forecasting and optimization system and one or more site-level controllers. The forecasting and optimization system generates predictions of optimal set points and communicate the optimal set points to a site-level controller. The site-level controller includes stored instructions that, when executed, direct the site-level controller to perform a boundary check and a real-time static economic dispatch, which can include steps of receiving optimal set points from the forecasting and optimization system; comparing received optimal set points with local conditions; outputting dispatch commands for DER control according to the optimal set points when the optimal set points are within appropriate limits with respect to the local conditions; and when the optimal set points exceed the appropriate limits, generating adjusted dispatch commands and outputting the adjusted dispatch commands for the DER control.
