Abstract
A method performed by a network controller of an electrical microgrid having a plurality of energy storages. Each of the energy storages is associated with a respective storage controller. The method includes receiving information about a measurement made at a remote location in the microgrid. The method also includes obtaining respective participation factors in respect of the remote location for each of at least a first energy storage and a second energy storage of the plurality of energy storages. The method also includes obtaining respective states of charge for each of the at least first and second energy storages. The method also includes, for each of the at least first and second energy storages, calculating a reference value for the energy storage, and sending the reference value to the storage controller with which the energy storage is associated. The calculating includes calculating the reference value based on the obtained participation factors and the obtained states of charge.
