Supervisory Predictive Control of an Integrated Wind/Solar Energy Generation and Water Desalination System
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work focuses on the design of a supervisory predictive control system for the optimal management and operation of a stand-alone wind-solar energy generation system which provides power to a reverse-osmosis (RO) water desalination system. We design the supervisory control system via model predictive control which coordinates the wind and solar subsystems as well as a battery bank to best satisfy the power demand of the RO system. Simulations are carried out to illustrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed supervisory predictive control design.
