Real-Time Operation of Microgrids

Microgrid (MG) systems effectively integrate a generation mix of solar, wind, and other renewable energy resources. The intermittent nature resources the unpredictable weather conditions contribute largely to unreliability microgrid real-time operation. This paper investigates behavior for different scenarios photovoltaic in real-time. Reactive power coordination control load shedding mechanisms are used reliable operation implemented using OPAL-RT simulator integrated with Matlab. In an islanded MG, can be effective mechanism maintain generation-load balance. German Jordanian University (GJU) is illustration. results show that reactive not only stabilizes MG but also reduces losses on transmission lines. at some substations reduced by range 6% - 9.8%.
