Power Sharing Method for a Grid connected Microgrid with Multiple Distributed Generators

چکیده
In this paper, a grid connected microgrid with multiple inverter-based distributed generators (DGs) is considered. DG in FFC mode regulates the microgrid as a controllable load from the utility point of view as long as its output is within the capacity limit. The transition mode causes a change in frequency of microgrid due to the loss of power transferred between main grid and microgrid. Frequency deviation from the nominal value can exceed the limit if the loss of power is large enough. This paper presents a coordinated control method for inverter-based DGs so that the microgrid is always regulated as a constant load from the utility viewpoint during grid connected mode, and the frequency deviation in the transition mode is minimized. DGs can share the load by changing their control modes between UPC and FFC and stabilize microgrid during transition.

Decentralized Control Strategy for Optimal Energy Management in Grid-Connected and Islanded DC Microgrids
This paper proposes a decentralized control technique to minimize the total operation cost of a DC microgrid in both grid-connected and islanded modes. In this study, a cost-based droop control scheme based on the hourly bids of all participant distributed generators (DGs) and the hourly energy price of the utility is presented. An economic power sharing technique among various types of DG unit...

متن کاملDroop Control Based Power Sharing For A Microgrid With Manifold Distributed Generations
This paper highlights on the active power sharing of manifold distributed generators (DGs) in a microgrid. The microgrid can be functioned in two modes 1) a grid-connected mode and 2) An autonomous mode. In the course of islanded operation, one DG unit should share its output power with other DG units in exact accordance with the load. Unit output power control (UPC) is introduced to control th...
