This paper presents a demand response (DR) and battery storage coordination algorithm for providing microgrid tie-line smoothing services. A modified coordinating control strategy is implemented through two-way communication networks to manage distributed heat pumps in a microgrid for smoothing the tie-line (connect the microgrid to the main grid) power fluctuations. A total of 1000 residential electric heat pumps and a battery storage system are modeled to demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm. The impact of outdoor temperature changes and customer room temperature preferences is considered in the simulation. The results show that coordinating with DR programs can significantly reduce the size of conventional energy storage systems for large-scale integration of renewable generation resources in microgrids and improve the power quality.
