A New Approach for Voltage Balancing and Appropriate Power-Sharing in Autonomous Microgrids

Abstract:   (2267 Views)
This paper suggests a new control method to modify the virtual impedance performance in unbalanced conditions. The proposed method compensates the voltage drop that occurred due to the virtual impedance and adjusts the voltage of the point of common coupling at a desirable level. To compensate the voltage drop, the reference voltage in the droop control varies according to the proposed algorithm. Moreover, a modified decoupled double synchronous reference frame is introduced to achieve appropriate active and reactive power sharing and voltage balancing, simultaneously. Finally, the simulation results in MATLAB/Simulink are provided to validate the accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed approach.
