The paper presents a proposed co-simulation platform for a realistic validation of distributed algorithms in smart grid with the integration of the multi-agent system. The platform uses a master framework called MOSAIK to manage and schedule all related simulators. A cyber-physical system is created for the operation. The physical system is a real-time simulator of the power grid; meanwhile, the cyber system is a cluster of independent agents with sparse communication. The Alternating direction method of multiplier (ADMM) for distributed optimal power flow is introduced and conducted to show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
