Distributed algorithms are increasingly being used to solve the economic dispatch problem of integrated energy systems (IESs) because of their high flexibility and strong robustness, but those algorithms also bring more risk of cyber-attacks in IESs. To solve this problem, this article investigates the distributed robust economic dispatch problem of IESs under cyber-attacks. First, as the first line of defense against attacks, a privacy-preserving protocol is designed for covering up some vital information used for economic dispatch of IESs. On this basis, a distributed robust economic dispatch strategy is presented to achieve the energy management of IESs in the presence of misbehaving units, which consists of a neighbor-observe-based detection process and a reputation-based isolation process. The proposed strategy is implemented in a fully distributed fashion and possesses strong robustness against various colluding and noncolluding attacks. In addition, the strategy can not only ensure the reliability of information transmission among energy units, but also solve the problem of incorrect measurement of distributed local load data caused by cyber-attacks. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategy is illustrated by simulation cases on a 39-bus 32-node power–heat IES.
