Since loop 7 has the capacity to serve all load

Since Loop 7 has the capacity to serve all load demands with a controllable
power plant, power flow calculation of this loop is shown in island mode.

Day-Ahead Optimal Scheduling
• This figure shows the data flow for the day-ahead optimal scheduling in
ICMMC.
• The day-ahead market clearing price from ComEd would be used as the
forecasted electricity price and the forecasted fuel price would be applied.
• The solar unit generation would be calculated based on the seasonal
generation profile combing with the sunrise/sunset time and forecasted
cloudy information.

and Power Flow
• The load would be predicted
using linear regression method
based on historical load data.
• With all the forecasted
information and forecasted
microgrid component status, the
set points for controllable
generation resources (co-gen and
battery) would be calculated as
reference set points.

Real-Time Optimal Scheduling
• This figure shows the data flow for the real-time UC/ED in ICMMC.
• The available generation capacity would be calculated based on the current
system operating point (co-gen and battery).
