Abstract This manuscript deals with the situation in which the different agents or buses in a power network have access to local renewable resources and must manage its use in a distributed fashion. The buses distributedly decide the amount of power to be generated using their local renewable power plants, and that to be demanded from the grid. The decisions are made according to the optimization of a cost function that considers both economic and technical factors. The problem is approached resorting to a game-theoretical framework that requires a negotiation process among the neighboring buses. An iterative algorithm is proposed in order to solve this problem, providing existence and convergence conditions under which the buses reach a suitable equilibrium. The algorithm performance is tested in simulations over a modification of the IEEE 14-bus system, in which the lines are modeled as resistances and distributed generation is considered. Simulations on a network of 44 buses are also included to show the scalability of the method. © 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
