Abstract
Microgrids (MGs) concepts are a systematic way to integrate the supply and demand side along with the storage devices. These mostly use renewable energy resources (RESs) viz. solar PV and wind turbines, interfaced to the low voltage distribution network via an inverter. As several components are involved, MGs has a system of systems (SoSs) architecture and its modeling leads to form a high order system. Hence, for the controllers' design purposes, these models had to be brought down to a reduced lower order system. This paper performs a comparative study of various model order reduction (MOR) techniques viz. aggregation, balanced truncation (BT), singular perturbation (SP) and Hankel norm approximation (HNA) on a two-source autonomous MG system. The standard performance evaluation methods used for a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system i.e. the step and impulse responses, eigenvalue analysis and Bode plots were considered to determine the effectiveness of these MOR method.
