Abstract

This paper proposes a multiagent approach to decentralized power system restoration for a distribution system network. The proposed method consists of several feeder agents (FAGs) and load agents (LAGs). A LAG corresponds to the customer load, while a FAG is developed to act as a manager for the decision process. From the simulation results, it can be seen the proposed multiagent system could reach the right solution by making use of only local information. This means that the proposed multiagent system is a promising approach to more large-scale distribution networks.
