Abstract

Microgrid became one of the key spot in research on distributed energy systems. Since the definition of the microgrid is paradigm of the first time, investigation in this area is growing continuously and there are numerous research projects in this moment all over the world. The increased infiltration of nonlinear loads and power electronic interfaced distribution generation system creates power quality issues in the distributed power system. In this paper, a comprehensive survey on microgrid to improve the power quality parameters is taken as the main objective. Furthermore, the detailed investigations are explored in this paper for the enhancement of power quality issues with the help of an optimization technique, filters, controllers, FACTS devices, compensators, and battery storage.

Summary

Introduction

Microgrid [1] may be defined as an agglomeration of distributed generation (DG) units usually linked through power electronic based devices (voltage source inverter) to the utility grid. Harmonic content, increased reactive power demand, and frequency deviation are the foremost power quality hitches which affect the utility grid. The main power quality parameters include voltage and frequency along with harmonic distortion, which has been improved by adopting Static VAR Compensator (SVC) and Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF) in [8]. The voltage and frequency control mode are adopted in microgrid under grid tied or islanded in order to regulate voltage and frequency in microgrid [9, 10]. ISRN Renewable Energy the efficient methodology to enhance the power quality parameter like active and reactive power control both in grid and autonomous operation.
