Current trends in electric power consumption indicate an increasing use of dc in end-user equipment, such as computers and other electronic appliances used in households and offices. With a dc power system, ac/dc conversion within these loads can be avoided, and losses reduced. AC/DC conversion is instead centralized, and by using efficient, fully controllable power-electronic interfaces, high ...

Microgrid is a part of the power distribution system which uses renewable energy based of power generation connected to the grid system. Multi energy power generation is composed of renewable energy systems including photovoltaic, wind turbine, energy storage and local loads. Testbed of a microgrid system is the technique to ensure stable operation during faults and various network disturbances...

Hybrid microgrid consists of AC and DC grids, in which the interlinking converter is used to connect AC and DC microgrids. The droop control scheme is widely applied to hybrid microgrid control including interlinking converter because it can be used to control power in hybrid microgrid without communication. However, the existing steadystate error in conventional droop control might affect to t...

Voltage stability is a critical feature of an efficiently operating power distribution system such as a DC islanded microgrid. Large-scale autonomous power systems can be defined by heterogeneous elements, uncertainty and changing conditions. This paper proposes a novel scalable decentralised control scheme at the primary level of the typical hierarchical control architecture of DC islanded mic...
