碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 電子工程系研究所 === 103 === Smart Grid is the future power grid which adopt decentralized structure. Micro-grid is an energy aggregation of various Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) such as solar power, wind power, fuel cell and energy storage devices. Distributed Micro-grid network is the major trend of future smart grid. With the development of Smart Grid, there will have more than one power supply side in the future and the demand side will have more options to purchase electricity. In this paper, we propose an electricity trading system which provide a multi-agent platform to simulate different trading algorithms. The platform is developed by Java Agent DEvelopment Framework (JADE) which comply with standard of multi-agent system – The Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA). Furthermore, A Graphical User Interface (GUI) based platform is designed for users to input their trading parameters and monitor the results. This thesis design the electricity trading system for future electricity market. The trading system utilize the characteristic of communicative based on multi-agent which can make electricity trading has more different ways. The users purchase power from utility directly which is the traditional way of electricity trading. According to different period, the price of utility power will be changed. Compare with traditional way, the simulation results show that the proposed trading system can save 31.34% cost.
