Modern MSGs are largely driven by power\nelectronic converters due to their high efficiency and flexibility.\nNevertheless, controlling MSGs is a challenging task due to highest\nrequirements on energy availability, safety and voltage quality within a wide\nrange of different MSG topologies. This results in a high demand for\ncomprehensive testing of new control concepts during their development phase\nand comparisons with the state of the art in order to ensure their feasibility.\nThis applies in particular to data-driven control approaches from the field of\nreinforcement learning (RL), whose stability and operating behavior can hardly\nbe evaluated a priori. Therefore, the OpenModelica Microgrid Gym (OMG) package,\nan open-source software toolbox for the simulation and control optimization of\nMSGs, is proposed. It is capable of modeling and simulating arbitrary MSG\ntopologies and offers a Python-based interface for plug \\& play controller\ntesting. In particular, the standardized OpenAI Gym interface allows for easy\nRL-based controller integration. Besides the presentation of the OMG toolbox,\napplication examples are highlighted including safe Bayesian optimization for\nlow-level controller tuning.","lang":"eng"}],"title":"Towards a Scalable and Flexible Simulation and Testing Environment\n  Toolbox for Intelligent Microgrid Control","date_updated":"2022-02-28T08:14:53Z"}
