Abstract

This project will focus on the optimal power flow system a networked micro-grid in Sarawak rural areas. Every power system in the main grid from generation natural sources connected to the transmission lines and delivered to the demands have their cost charged for the use of electricity. The rural areas community is the place where have a problem about the electricity consumption because there have lack grid access compared to the urban areas. The principle objective of this project is to improve and minimize the cost-effective of the user electricity Sarawak rural areas with added option of single or multiple micro-grid is connected to the main grid. In this project, the micro-grid supply is connected to the main grid in the chosen areas with several type of the connection. The Power-World Simulator software will be used in this project to simulate and analyse data of the cost-effective between multiple micro-grid in Sarawak rural areas. At the end of this project, the cost-effective in networked micro-grid based on optimal power flow method will be analysed. The simulation result including combination power supply free generator and costly generator such as solar system, diesel generator, battery storage either in grid connected mode or in island mode. The loads demand are combination of the networked micro-grid approximately for 69 villages. The utility grid and also diesel generator will be containing the hourly cost when the loads demand increase. The cost minimize happened in a networked micro-grid that contained free generator and also costly generator when the optimal power flow method being applied in community rural areas in Sarawak. Therefore, the power generation to the demands needs stability supply and demand to make sure the cost of the power system networked will obtain a good benefits to the user
