In this paper, a two-stage stochastic programming model based on a multi-objective optimization has been proposed for optimal operation of smart micro-grid (MG) aiming at minimizing operational costs and environmental emissions in presence of renewable resources and demand response. In the presented model, the forecasting error of the renewable resources productions is modeled by probability density functions and demand response has been implemented to cover the uncertainty of the renewable resources. Here, it is assumed that the MG operator decides on two stages for optimum management of its network; first stage is the operation in the base state and the second one is pertaining to the domains of different scenarios for generation of renewable resources. The base state of the micro-grid refers to the situation in which the active power productions of renewables are equal to the predicted values. To solve the problem, Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization method has been used and TOPSIS technique has been applied to extract the output from the Pareto Frontier. The proposed approach is applied to a typical MG and the numerical results show the efficiency of demand side management in reducing costs and environmental emissions as well as covering the uncertainty resulting from renewables.
