Abstract
Development of renewable energies and DC loads have led microgrids toward the creation of DC networks. The predictions show that the hybrid microgrids will be used widely in the future. This article has studied the voltage stability in the presence of sources of energy storage in AC/DC hybrid networks. However, because the different dynamics of hybrid networks applying centralized and distributed controllers will be faced with different problems, in this study, a multi-agent control for the microgrid has been used. A new structure referred to here as an event-driven microgrid control management (EDMCM) has been developed to control the microgrid. This method increases response speed and accuracy of decision making. Hybrid Network Simulation results confirm the validity of the developed model.
Highlights
IntroductionThe emergence of technical innovations and changes in countries’ economic and international regulations for the environment has extended interest in renewable energy generation using distributed energy resources (DERs) such as gas turbines, micro-turbines, photovoltaic cells, fuel cells and wind turbines [2]
In the power system field, there are several new paradigms of power grids which are trying to address various issues [1]
The results show that the energy storage agent made a correct decision to connect the battery to the grid
Summary
The emergence of technical innovations and changes in countries’ economic and international regulations for the environment has extended interest in renewable energy generation using distributed energy resources (DERs) such as gas turbines, micro-turbines, photovoltaic cells, fuel cells and wind turbines [2]. The increasing penetration of distributed generations (DG) has side effects on the power quality, reliability, and security of a network. Known as microgrids (MG), smartness refers to the ability of control and management of energy consumption and production [3]. The microgrid basically involves DGs, renewable energy sources, clusters of controllable loads and distributed storages operating in a coordinated manner to reach distinctive objects. Microgrids are expected to improve power quality, reduce transmission losses, provide system reliability and reduce energy prices
