Microgrid: Advanced Control Methods and Renewable Energy System Integration

Microgrids: Advanced Control Methods and Renewable Energy System Integration shows the state-of-art of methods and applications of microgrid control. The book has been divided into 11 chapters. The first three chapters provide an overview of the control methods of microgrid systems, followed by a review of distributed control and management strategies for the next generation microgrids and identify future research directions and then deal with hierarchical power sharing control in DC Microgrids. Chapter 4 investigates the demand side management in microgrid control systems from various perspectives, followed by an outline of the operation and controls of the smart microgrids in Chapter 5. Chapter 6 deals with control of low-voltage microgrids with master/slave architecture. The final chapters explain the load-Frequency Controllers for Distributed Power System Generation Units, the issue of robust control design for VSIs; followed by a communication solution denoted as power talk. Finally, in Chapter 11, real-time implementation of distributed control for an autonomous microgrid system is performed. Addresses issues of contemporary interests to practitioners in the power engineering and management fieldsIt focuses on the role of microgrids within the overall power system structure and attempts to clarify the main findings related to primary and secondary control and management at the microgrid levelProvides results from quantified assessment of the microgrids benefits from an economic, environmental, operational and social point of viewsIt presents the hierarchical control levels manifested in microgrid operations and evaluates the principles and main functions of centralized and decentralized control INDICE: 1.
