At the moment, with an interest in renewable energy sources (RES) that continue to grow its penetration will be expected to considerably increase in the future power system. However, this penetration of RES leads to new challenges to be solved in electric power systems. In this paper, optimal configuration of renewable energy resources and operation strategy is presented. By using this methodology for allocation of the optimal sizes and types, system operational efficiency and stability of the microgrid will be maximized.

Recently, the small scale photovoltaic (PV) electronic devices are drawing attention as the upcoming PV generation system. The PV system is commonly used in small scale PV applications such as LED lighting and cell phone. This paper proposes photovoltaic output sensorless (POS) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control for a small scale charging system of PV-nickel metal hydride battery using field-programmable gate array (FPGA) controller. A converter is connected to a small scale PV cell and battery, and performs the POS MPPT at the battery terminal current instead of being at the PV cell output voltage and current. The FPGA controller and converter operate based on POS MPPT method. The experimental results show that the nickel metal hydride battery is charged by the maximum PV output power.

This paper describes operational analysis results of the DC micro-grid using detailed model of distributed generation. Detailed model of wind power generation, photo-voltaic generation, fuel-cell generation was implemented with the user-defined model of PSCAD/EMTDC software that is coded with C-language. The operation analysis was carried out using PSCAD/EMTDC software, in which the power circuit is implemented by built-in model and the controller is modelled by user-defined model that is also coded with C-language. Various simulation results confirm that the DC micro-grid can operate without any problem in both the interconnected mode and the islanded mode. The operation analysis result confirms that the DC micro-grid make it feasible to provide power to the load stably. And it can be utilize to develop the actual system design and building.

This paper proposes a DC microgrid operational strategy and control method for improved service reliability. The objective is to supply power to as many non-critical loads as possible, while providing an uninterrupted power supply to critical loads. The DC bus signaling method, in which DC voltage is an information carrier, is employed to implement the operational strategy in a decentralized manner. During grid-connected operation, a grid-tied converter balances the power of the microgrid by controlling the DC voltage. All loads are connected to the microgrid, and operate normally. During islanded operation, distributed generators (DGs), a backup generator, or an energy storage system balances the power. However, some non-critical loads may be disconnected from the microgrid to ensure the uninterrupted power supply to critical loads. For enhanced service reliability, disconnected loads can be automatically reconnected if certain conditions are satisfied. Control rules are proposed for all devices, and detailed microgrid operational modes and transition conditions are then discussed. Additionally, methods to determine control parameter settings are proposed. PSCAD/EMTDC simulation results demonstrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed operational strategy and control method.

현재 도서지역에 도입되어 운용되고 있는 풍력-디젤 하이브리드 발전시스템에는 풍속과 부하변동에 대하여 적정범위의 전압주파수를 갖는 전력을 공급하기 위하여 고가의 제어가 복잡한 플라이휘일 또는 배터리 에너지저장장치를 설치운영하고 있다. 그러나, 본 논문은 이와 같이 비경제적이고 복잡도가 높은 에너지저장장치를 설치하지 않고, 풍속 및 부하변동에도 안정적인 운전이 가능한 영구자석형(PMSG: Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) 풍력-디젤 복합발전시스템으로 구성되는 독립형 마이크로그리드의 운전제어 알고리즘과 모델링 방법을 제안하였다. 먼저, 부하 및 풍속변동에 관계없이 적정범위의 전압주파수를 유지할 수 있는 PMSG 풍력발전기의 운전제어 알고리즘을 제안하고, 이를 바탕으로 한 전가변속 운전이 가능한 PMSG, WT측 컨버터 및 Grid측 컨버터를 모델링하고, 이를 독립형 마이크로그리드에 적용하여 풍속 및 부하변화에 대하여 전압주파수가 적정범위내로 잘 유지됨을 입증하였다.

This paper introduces a grid-interactive storage system to operate the customers without voltage source inverters as a microgrid. The proposed storage system does not require any modification of the control scheme of the inverters existing within the customers. Novel control scheme of the grid-interfacing storage system according to its new structure ensures the seamless transition between the grid-connected and islanded operation of the microgrid.

This paper analyse a operating characteristics when the Community Energy System (CES) is operated islanding mode. In the near future, CES might be one of major energy supply structures. The basic concept of CES is that it supplies electrical and thermal energy to the local customer loads through the islanded power network separated from the grid. The CES must be supplying local load with stable energy on the islanding mode, analysing necessary to thoroughly the operation feature. In order to show them, in this paper, we model the CES with 2.34 MVA DG and simulate the operating feature on the islanding mode of CES. The simulation results show that, in order to stability operate, the CES need the efficient load management and generation control schemes during the transition periods.

마이크로그리드는 주로 신재생 전원으로 구성되는 소규모 전력시스템으로 그 관심이 고조되고 있다. 최근 멀티에이전트 기반의 마이크로그리드의 운용 및 제어 기술에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 전력시스템과 연계되지 않는 독립운전의 경우는 상용주파수를 유지하기 위해서 전력의 공급과 부하의 균형을 유지시켜야 하며, 특히 전력공급이 부족한 경우는 강제적으로 전력의 부하를 차단하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 멀티에이전트 시스템 기반의 독립운전을 하는 마이크로그리드 운용을 위한 강제적인 부하 차단을 위해서 파산문제(bankruptcy problem)와 CEA(constrained equal awards) 규칙에 근거하여 부하 차단의 기법을 제안하고 이에 대해서 그 활용 가능성을 검토하고자 한다.

This work mainly discusses an accurate and fast islanding detection based on fractional wavelet packet transform (FRWPT)for multibus microgrid systems. The proposed protection scheme uses combined desirable features retrieved from discrete fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) and wavelet packet transform (WPT) techniques, which provides precise time-frequency information on minute perturbation signals introduced in the system. Moreover, this study focuses on the design of decoupling control with a distributed controller based on state feedback for the efficient operation of microgrid systems that are transitioning from the grid-connected mode to the islanded mode. An IEEE 9-bus test system with inverter based distributed generation (DG) units is considered for islanding assessment and smooth operation. Finally, tracking errors are greatly reduced with stability improvement based on the proposed controller. FRWPT based islanding detection is demonstrated via a time domain simulation of the system. Simulated results show an improvement in system stability with the application of the proposed controller and accurate islanding detection based on the FRWPT technique in comparison with the results obtained by applying the wavelet transform (WT) and WPT.
