In the energy transition context, electrical microgrids are crucial for integrating distributed renewable energy resources into modern power systems. Microgrid elements must function within a common operating framework to ensure seamless dispatch and transition capabilities. For this reason, different IoT-based operational frameworks for distributed generic microgrid controllers have been proposed recently to support grid-connected and islanded modes. Commonly, these promising proposals leave the architecture of the IoT communication system undefined, being a critical aspect for guaranteeing data exchange reliability. This work introduces a Unified Namespace (UNS) architecture for an IoT-based distributed microgrids framework. The proposed approach establishes a UNS hierarchy and addresses key aspects such as message exchange optimization, security, access control, and implementation flow.
En el contexto de la transición energética, las microrredes eléctricas son cruciales para integrar los recursos energéticos renovables distribuidos en los sistemas eléctricos modernos. Los elementos que componen las microrredes deben funcionar dentro de un marco operativo común para garantizar las capacidades de despacho y transición. Por este motivo, recientemente se han propuesto diferentes marcos operativos basados en IoT para controladores genéricos de microrredes distribuidas que admiten los modos conectado a la red e isla. Por lo general, estas propuestas no definen en detalle la arquitectura del sistema de comunicaciones IoT, un aspecto crítico para garantizar la fiabilidad del intercambio de datos. Este trabajo presenta una arquitectura de Espacio de nombres Unificado (UNS) para un marco operativo de microrredes distribuidas basadas en IoT. El enfoque propuesto establece una jerarquía UNS y aborda aspectos clave como la optimización del intercambio de mensajes, la seguridad, el control de acceso y el flujo de implementación.
