Abstract
This study presents an innovative control scheme to improve the power sharing among doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) wind units in a medium-voltage (MV) microgrid. The control objectives of DFIGs in an islanded mode of microgrid operation are to achieve: (i) stabilisation of the microgrid voltage amplitude and frequency, (ii) proper active/reactive power sharing among wind units. To satisfy these requirements, the DFIG control loop based on the traditional droop control is designed. This method, however, cannot satisfactorily operate in a MV microgrid with dominantly resistive line impedances from power sharing point of view. To overcome this problem, a modified control strategy is proposed in this study. The mathematical modelling is developed, and time-domain simulations are presented to verify the novel control scheme in a typical microgrid case study.
