The paper proposes a model for a micro-grid
architecture incorporating the role of aggregators and renewable sources on the
prosumer side, working together to optimize configurations and operations. The
final model takes the form of a mixed-integer
linear programming model. This model is solved using the CPLEX solver via GAMS
by having a consistent data set.
