Abstract The interconnection of dynamically decoupled subsystems, each exhibiting a certain dissipativity property considered in the context of economic MPC, is investigated. Interconnection of the subsystems is by means of their cost functions being separable in a purely local economic and a coupling cost term. For certain classes of quadratic interconnection costs we provide conditions on the interconnection structure under which the overall system exhibits the same dissipativity property. Moreover, we apply a non-iterative distributed MPC scheme to the interconnected system which yields asymptotic stability of the overall optimal steady state by exploiting the structural properties of the system interconnection.
