Multi-microgrid power distribution systems are gaining attention in the smart grid era. Distributed energy resources, energy storage, as well as energy sharing and scheduling has a great potential to enhance multi-microgrid systems’ performance. This research develops an algorithm for optimal operation of various distributed energy resources in a flexible boundary multi-microgrid power distribution network, considering internet of things (IoT). The proposed algorithm used in this research can reduce power system operating costs, power, and energy losses and emissions, and ultimately increase the systems’ efficiency. A hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization-Tabu Search algorithm is developed for optimization purposes.
