Abstract

Multiple microgrid (MG) distribution systems are facing challenges owing to variations in the operational statuses of the individual MGs, which experience voltage and current fluctuations during transient interconnections. The impedances of the interconnecting lines further exacerbate the unevenness of power distribution among the MGs, hence threatening the operational stability of the system. To achieve flexible and seamless interconnections between multiple MGs, we fully analyzed the interconnected structures and operation modes of the MGs; then, we designed a transient switching control method based on investigation of the transient interconnection processes to ensure smooth transition of the MGs. Additionally, to balance the power distribution among the interconnected MGs, a voltage–current-based coordinated power control strategy was synthesized using advanced synchronized fixed-frequency technology. Simulation case studies were conducted, and the results indicate that the proposed coordinated power control scheme effectively facilitated instantaneous interconnections between the isolated regions, thereby avoiding voltage disturbances and current surges. Furthermore, it efficiently equalized and distributed the output power from the distributed energy sources, thereby enhancing the operational flexibilities and stabilities of the MGs and distribution system.
