Modeling and Control of Microgrids Consisted of Multiple Parallel-Connected Distributed Energy Resources
Abstract
This proposal targets at power converter interfaced and synchronous generator-based microgrids consisted of multiple parallel DERs.The proposal targets at a wide range of microgrids whose line impedances are significantly smaller than the parameters/time constants of the DERs, including both small-scale civilian microgrids and AC and DC Naval shipboard power systems. Since the algorithms will go through practical hardware experimentation, their technology readiness levels will be much higher thanthose only tested through software simulations. Thus, the modeling, control, and testing techniques developed according to this proposal will be very useful for the Navy. The project can bridge the gaps among multiple research disciplines of both experimental and theoretical. The proposed work will demonstrate to power system and power electronics societies that advanced controls can significantly improve control performance with minimum cost. The success of thisproject will also provide control system society with new applications and challenges.
