A CURRENT RETENTION BASED PROTECTION ALGORITHM FOR DC MICROGRIDS

Microgrids have been identified as a step towards goals of global green energy generation they offer attractive options renewable resource inclusion in decentralized networks, thus providing incentive meeting booming demand sustainably. They are however impaired by the characteristic nature Distributed Renewable Energy Resources (DRERs). While DRERs and microgrids advantage sustainable autonomous operation with respect to traditional grid, their intermittency unconventional characteristics due deviation from power grid structures causes trepidation while opting for them. A cause concern employing daily use is peril personnel equipment during occurrence fault. To mitigate severe loss life property, it important develop design protection algorithms microgrids. there comparatively large pool knowledge on AC microgrid protection, DC challenging being focused researchers around world. The unorthodox these networks conventional be unsuitable make tasking. work this paper aims contribute efforts hybrid limited side proposed algorithm able detect identify location various types faults. verified secondary radial further compared existing performance parameters.
