Abstract
This chapter targets on a multi-agent approach for an automated coordination and control of power flow controllers (PFC). In comparison to chapter 10 no central instance is required for the topology analysis. The agents derive the relevant actual topology through local communication and perform coordinated control actions according to the present situation. Therefore the approach can be implemented easily under the condition that a fast communication network between all network elements is available.
