This paper presents a newly developed EDC (Economic Dispatching Control) function for Tohoku EPCO's new EMS system. In this new EDC, we can minimize total fuel cost under system security constraints such as "AFC margin considering band width and ramp rate in future band changing schedule" and "power flow constraint considering future maintenance schedule". We formulate EDC problem as "continuous variable (generator output) optimization" under "combinatorial optimization of band schedule". To optimize this problem, Problem Space Search method and interior point QP method are adopted. Test results and the actual operation show that, this new EDC can follow against steep increase and decrease of electric demand cooperating with AFC. This EDC has been operating successfully in Tohoku EPCO since June 2003.

Photovoltaic (PV) and Wind Turbine (WT) generation systems are expected to offer solutions to reduce green house gases and become more widely used in the future. However, the chief technical drawback of using these kinds of weather-dependent generators is the difficulty of forecasting their output, which can have negative impacts on commercial grids if a large number of them are introduced. Thus, this problem may hinder the wider application of PV and WT generation systems. The Regional Power Grid with Renewable Energy Resources Project was launched to seek a solution to this problem.<br>The scope of the project is to develop, operate, and evaluate a Dispersed Renewable Energy Supply System with the ability to adapt the total energy output in response to changes in weather and demand. Such a system would reduce the impact that PV and WT generation systems have on commercial grids and allow the interconnection of more Dispersed Energy Resources (DER). In other words, the main objective of this project is to demonstrate an integrated energy management system, or a type of microgrid [1], as a new way of introducing DERs. The system has been in operation since October 2005 and will continue operation until March 2008. Through the project period, the data on power quality, system efficiency, operation cost, and environmental burden will be gathered and a cost-benefit analysis of the system will be undertaken.<br>In this paper, firstly we introduce the concept of microgrid for reducing negative impact of natural energy, and secondly illustrate the structure of electric and thermal supply control system for Microgrid, especially for the Hachinohe demonstration project. The control system consists of four stages; weekly operation planning, economic dispatching control, tie-line control and local frequency control. And finally demonstration results and evaluation results are shown.
