Abstract
This editorial manuscript reviews the papers accepted for publication in the Special Issue “DC & Hybrid Microgrids” of Applied Sciences. This Special Issue, co-organized by the University of Pisa, Italy and Østfold University College in Norway, has collected nine papers from 25 submitted, with authors from Asia, North America and Europe. The published articles provide an overview of the most recent research advances in direct current (DC) and hybrid microgrids, exploiting the opportunities offered by the use of renewable energy sources, battery energy storage systems, power converters, innovative control and energy management strategies.
Highlights
This editorial analyzes the manuscripts accepted, after a careful peer-reviewed process, for the Special Issue “direct current (DC) & Hybrid Microgrids” of Applied Sciences
The Special Issue has been co-organized by the University of Pisa (Full Professors Sergio Saponara and Roberto Saletti at the Department of Information Engineering), Italy and Østfold University College (Full Professor Lucina Mihet-Popa at the School of Engineering) in Norway
By exploiting the opportunities offered by the use of renewable energy sources, battery energy storage systems, power converters, and innovative control and energy management strategies, new scenarios are opened with the opportunity for industrial exploitation
Summary
This editorial analyzes the manuscripts accepted, after a careful peer-reviewed process, for the Special Issue “DC & Hybrid Microgrids” of Applied Sciences. The paper proposes a hybrid complementary energy storage control method to improve the power quality and the fault ride-through capability of islanded forest microgrids. Given the different characteristics of the energy storage units, the adaptive control of battery and supercapacitor are adopted in the paper to smooth the low-frequency power fluctuation in the long term and to suppress the high-frequency component separately.
