The droop control strategy is the most common approach for microgrids control but its application is limited due to frequency deviation following a load change. Complementary control strategy has then been proposed to solve the problem using a communication network. However, under this strategy, regular loads profile produces a continuous change of output power of all distributed generators (DG...

As the integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in modern grids is increasing, the microgrid concept has been established. In the case of converter-dominated microgrids without communication links, the droop control method is mainly adopted in the primary control level. Normally, the economic operation of the microgrid is incorporated in the secondary control level, requiring communic...

The increasing penetration of renewable generators can be a significant challenge due to the fluctuation of their power generation. Energy storage (ES) units are one solution to improve power supply quality and guarantee system stability. In this paper, a hybrid microgrid is built based on photovoltaic (PV) generator and ES; and coordinated control is proposed and developed to achieve power man...

The rising rate of consumption and price of fossil fuel along with environmental pollution by conventional power generation draw global attention to renewable energy sources and technology. Paper gives analysis study on current sharing issues of parallel DC converters in standalone photovoltaic (PV) WIND system. Solar wind power generating system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniq...

In this paper an analytical approach is conducted to evaluate the droop control method in an islanding microgrid. Droop control is the key solution for sharing the demand power between generators in autonomous microgrids where there is no support from the electricity distribution grid. In the paper, three important load types are investigated to verify the droop control performance. First, coup...

The power calculation is an indispensable element in droop-controlled inverters because the bandwidth of measured has a direct impact on controller performance. This paper proposes fast and accurate algorithm based combined Second Order Generalized Integrator (SOGI) filters stationary coordinates for three-phase system, which takes into consideration use nonlinear loads. scheme formed by two-st...

This paper proposes a new reactive-power sharing scheme to reduce the circulating current when two inverter-based distributed generations (DGs) operate in parallel through unequal line impedances in an islanded microgrid. If the terminal voltages of the two DGs are not equal due to the unequal line impedances, a circulating current due to reactive-power unbalance occurs, which increases system ...

This paper contains a control scheme for power sharing in islanded microgrids with invertersourced distributed energy resources that combines robust control and droop control. As the load within the microgrid changes, the inverter-sourced generators share the change in the load; this paper shows that the uncontrolled load sharing among the generators will be arbitrary and methods such as droop ...
