The bipolar low-voltage DC (LVDC) distribution system has become a prospective solution to better integration of renewables and improvement efficiency reliability. However, it also faces the challenge power voltage imbalance between two poles. To solve this problem, an interface converter with asymmetrical operating capabilities is applied in paper. steady-state models LVDC equipped grid connec...

Owing to the increasing penetration level of distributed energy resources (DER) and direct current (DC) load, usage low-voltage (LVDC) systems has expanded achieve efficient operations. However, because LVDC system reaches peak fault at a faster rate than alternating (AC) system, solution that protects components is necessary maintain integrity. It required by ride-through (LVRT) DERs their int...

With the development of renewable energy sources (RES), use microgrids is becoming more prevalent. The low voltage direct current (LVDC) microgrid provides numerous advantages, including increased convenience, improved efficiency, loss reduction, and simple integration with PV BESS. There are currently no perfect fault detection methods for LVDC microgrids. Solutions, such as protection relays ...

The increasing penetration of PV into the distribution grid leads to congestion, causing detrimental power quality issues. Moreover, multiple small photovoltaic (PV) systems and battery energy storage (BESSs) result in conversion losses. A low-voltage DC (LVDC) backbone interconnect these assets would decrease losses is a promising solution for more optimal integration systems. can be replaced ...

This paper proposes a hierarchical control approach for SuperCapacitor (SC) energy storage and microsources in islanded DC microgrids. It takes into account microsources’ dynamic steady-state limitations. The proposed relies on an architecture presented the SC’s interfaces with bus. In architecture, interface bus through buck converters. Moreover, SC bi-directional converter. instantaneous load...

Low-voltage dc (LVdc) microgrids facilitate the integration of renewable energy systems and modern loads. However, they suffer from lack a sensitive, selective, reliable, fast protection strategy. The low fault current high-resistance faults makes detection faulty zone identification challenging tasks for engineers. This article proposes scheme that is effective both bolted at LVdc feeders. dev...
