Abstract :
In this paper a case study of a multi-agent system architecture is presented focusing on load imbalance reduction in distribution and end-use consumption parts of the power network. Through a case study is shown the effectiveness of using the proposed multi-agent system architecture. This work also reinforces the confidence in multi-agent systems as a promising approach to address the needs of contemporary Energy Management Systems, which are rapidly moving toward distributed and automated solutions.
