Abstract

Microturbine generation system is one of the most promising and a fast growing distributed generation sources. It is used in various applications thanks to high efficiency, quick start and high reliability. Combination of the microturbine and storage system (e.g. battery bank) is desirable selection to satisfy the load requirements under all conditions and hence the battery bank can play an important role in restoring balance between source and demand. In this paper, modeling of the microturbine with battery energy storage system is presented to supply sensitive loads. Appropriate power exchange between battery and the microturbine is an essential issue so, a new control method is proposed for battery energy storage based on instantaneous value of DC-link voltage. In this new strategy, DC-link voltage as well as battery parameters (current and voltage) are used in order to produce desirable DC-DC switching. A control scheme based on voltage, current and frequency measurement is presented for the corresponding inverter. Simulations are carried out in MATLAB/Simulink software and the results show that storage along with proper control improves system reliability to supply sensitive load. The proposed configuration can be used as a remote power, emergency power and also in micro-grid.

Abstract

In this paper, a robust local controller has been designed to balance the power for distributed energy resources (DERs) in an islanded microgrid. Three different DER types are considered in this study; photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage systems, and synchronous generators. Since DER dynamics are nonlinear and uncertain, which may destabilize the power system or decrease the performance, distributed robust nonlinear controllers are designed for the DERs. They are based on the Lyapunov stabilization theory and super-twisting integral sliding mode control which guarantees system stability and optimality simultaneously. The reference signals for each DER are generated by a supervisory controller as a power management system. The controllers proposed in this work are robust, have fast response times, and most importantly, the control signals satisfy physical system constraints. The designed controller stability and effectiveness are also verified using numerical simulations.

Abstract

Demand-side management has become a viable solution to meet the needs of the power system and consumers in the past decades due to the problems of power imbalance and peak demand on the grid. This study focused on an improved decision tree-based algorithm to cover off-peak hours and reduce or shift peak load in a grid-connected microgrid using a battery energy storage system (BESS), and a demand response scheme. The main objective is to provide an efficient and optimal management strategy to mitigate peak demand, reduce the electricity price, and replace expensive reserve generation units. The developed algorithm is evaluated with two scenarios to see the behavior of the management system throughout the day, taking into account the different types of days (weekends and working days), the random profile of the users' demand, and the variation of the energy price (EP) on the grid. The simulation results allowed us to reduce the daily consumption by about 30% to 40% and to fill up to 12% to 15% of the off-peak hours with maximum use of renewable energies, demonstrating the control system's performance in smoothing the load curve.
