In this paper, a new power coordination method of MAS is presented for MG. New way for dispatching controllable generations (CGs) and direct cooperation between storages and CGs are designed. Real-time emulations of the coordination, including the usage of both CGs and storages, have been carried out in islanded situation basing on this method, and much higher performance than conventional method is found.展开更多
