Human-Centered Design, Development, and Evaluation of an Interface for a Microgrid Controller
Many millions of people have adverse effects on their lives, both socially and economically, when a power outage occurs. Along with other electrical events, the lack of Situational Awareness (SA) is one of the root causes of power system outages. In order to promote adequate situational awareness, both power system and microgrid interfaces should communicate…
Read More A DC Grid-Connected PV Microgrid Regulated via Digital and MBPC Cascade Control Strategies
The current paper focuses on the design of cascade control systems employed in photovoltaic (PV) powered microgrids (MG), which have been well received in remote agricultural farms in Ecuador. The study case is composed of a three-phase inverter powered by a DC-DC converter fed by a PV array and its control system. To simulate the…
Read More Stability Analysis of a DC Microgrid with Constant Power Load
DC Microgrids (DCMGs) aggregate and integrate various distribution generation (DG) units through the use of power electronic converters (PECs) that are present on both the source side and the load side of the DCMGs. Tightly regulated PECs at the load side behave as constant power loads (CPLs) and may promote instability in the entire DCMG.…
Read More Medium Voltage Microgrid Test Setup and Procedures Implemented on a Real Pilot Project
This paper presents various concepts related to the application of a microgrid pilot project in a residential condominium at Fortaleza / CE – Brazil, such as battery energy system, renewable and distributed generation, islanding recloser and all different units using interface based on power electronics. This papers main objective is to create information about microgrid…
Read More Multi Operated Virtual Power Plant in Smart Grid
In order to balance the power in intelligent distribution networks (Smart Grid or Microgrid), it is proposed to organize a «multi operated virtual power plant». The resources of active and reactive power for which can be obtained using an AC voltage controller with a phase-angle control for regulation of operating modes of the ohmic load…
Read More Smart Grid Users Benefits Based on DSM Algorithm Mathematical Optimization Problems Studied
The purpose of this research paper is to demonstrate that optimization of energy consumption, distributed generation and storage contribute towards mutually beneficial and satisfactory Demand Side Management algorithms that can be installed into consumer smart meters or in Home Energy Storage. A new solution based on an Energy Scheduling and Distributed Storage (ESDS) and Microgrid…
Read More Evaluation of the Effects of Bidding Strategy with Customized Pricing on the Individual Prosumer in a Local Energy Market
Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading is a mechanism that allows people to share locally the energy they have generated from distributed renewable resources (DER), to generate profit form the unused resources and to reduce the cost for electricity for the household and in the community itself. This calls for the design of new energy markets, accompanied…
