Energy Management in Smart Grids: Innovative Solutions for Demand-Side Optimization Considering Control Constraints

The paper delves into techniques to enhance energy management efficiency within microgrid systems, focusing on the Smart Grid context. With the progress in the global transition towards smarter and more sustainable electrical grids, Micro Grids have emerged as crucial elements, offering a decen-tralized generation of distribution capabilities within the broader framework of Smart Grids. Smart Grid management regarding the optimized utilization of different resources and energy storage while implementing grid control performances and regulatory standards is a critical priority in making Mi-crogrids work reliably and efficiently. The paper comprehen-sively presents relevant literature, exploring energy management techniques and outlining future research directions for maximizing demand-side management implementation by over-coming the associated challenges. Key considerations include demand side management, technical, economic, and regulatory obstacles, proposing solutions, and highlighting research gaps.
