While there is ongoing research that shows promise for the ability to protect inverter-interfaced microgrids, it is necessary to be able to validate such methods on microgrids of practical size,
View DetailsThe studies run on microgrid are classified in the two topics of feasibility and economic studies and control and optimization. The applications and types of microgrid are introduced first, and next, the objective of microgrid control is explained. Microgrid control is of the coordinated control and local control categories.
The control system should be able to regulate the voltage as well as the frequency, both during islanded operations of the microgrid and grid-tied operation. This paper gives an outline of a microgrid, its general architecture and also gives an overview of the three-level hierarchical control system of a microgrid.
A simple method of integration of a microgrid controller into utility operations would be through abstraction. High-level use cases are presented to the operator (ex., voltage regulation, power factor control, island mode), but most actual control is handled by the remote controller and not the power system operator.
3.4. Microgrid operation This subsection conducts a comprehensive literature review of the main control strategies proposed for microgrid operation with the aim to outline the minimum core-control functions to be implemented in the SCADA/EMS so as to achieve good levels of robustness, resilience and security in all operating states and transitions.
