Selection оf energy sources for prosumers in the centralized heat supply system using agent technologies

In recent years, the energy sector has been widely developing the direction associated with the introduction of distributed energy generation and the emergence of prosumers (PR), including within the heat supply system. Due to the emergence of consumers as participants in energy markets who take an active part in the process of managing their energy supply, there is a need to make decisions on energy supply options in the context of conflicting interests of the parties - the PR and the centralized heat supply system (CHS). The article presents a mathematical formulation of the problem of finding a compromise solution, which includes an PR model, a CHS model and a generalized desirability criterion. A methodology for selecting energy source equipment for PR in the CHS has been developed, taking into account the interests of the CHS and PR and their ability to produce heat energy. A structure of a multi-agent system is proposed and agent behavior algorithms are developed that take into account the complex behavior of the PR and CHS objects. The results of testing the developed methodological and software on a test model of the heat supply system are presented.
