To ensure the applicability and symmetry of the microgrid, the environmental benefits and economic costs are considered to comprehensively model the optimal operation of the microgrid under the grid-connected operation mode, at the same time, considering the effect of interruptible load on the operating cost of the microgrid, the power shifting for interruptible load is attempted on the basis of battery storage capacity. By adaptively adjusting the migration rate using the habitat suitability index of a normalized individual and adding a certain differential perturbation to the migration operator of the migration mechanism, an improved biogeography-based optimization algorithm is proposed and the microgrid optimization dispatching algorithm based on the improved biogeography-based optimization is applied. The advancement and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm and model is verified by the example, and the simulation results indicate that the implementation of the power dispatching scheme proposed in this paper can effectively reduce the total cost of the system. Moreover, the proper consideration of shifting interruptible load, the effective load management and guiding the electricity consumption behavior of users are of certain significance for optimizing the utilization of renewable energy and improving the system efficiency and economy.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/sym13091707","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,15]],"date-time":"2021-09-15T12:00:44Z","timestamp":1631707244000},"page":"1707","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Optimal Scheduling of Microgrid Considering the Interruptible Load Shifting Based on Improved Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithm"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Bo","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Science and Engineering, Dalian Polytechnic University, Dalian 116034, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2128-2150","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hongsheng","family":"Deng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Science and Engineering, Dalian Polytechnic University, Dalian 116034, China"}]},{"given":"Jue","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Information Science and Engineering, Dalian Polytechnic University, Dalian 116034, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,9,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"119387","DOI":"10.1016\/j.energy.2020.119387","article-title":"Multi-energy coordinated microgrid scheduling with integrated demand response for flexibility improvement","volume":"217","author":"Chen","year":"2020","journal-title":"Energy"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"112917","DOI":"10.1016\/j.enconman.2020.112917","article-title":"Integrated approach for optimal techno-economic planning for high renewable energy-based isolated microgrid considering cost of energy storage and demand response strategies","volume":"215","author":"Kiptooa","year":"2020","journal-title":"Energy Convers.
