Abstract: Currently, many countries have introduced policies to support the development of microgrids. However, the fixed tariff mechanism faces challenges due to the intermittent and volatile nature of renewable energy supply. Therefore, this paper constructs a tripartite evolutionary game model containing the government, users, and microgrids. It considers the impact of subsidies on market tariffs and investigates the range of tariffs. The model incorporates government subsidies derived from prior research to analyze their effects on microgrids and users, offering guidance for formulating government subsidy programs and serving as a significant reference for microgrid pricing.
