Research on the control strategy of DC microgrids with distributed energy storage

Abstract

AbstractAs a supplement to large power grids, DC microgrids with new energy access are increasingly widely used. However, with the increasing proportion of new energy in DC microgrids, its output fluctuations directly affect the overall stability of the microgrids. Distributed energy storage can smooth the output fluctuation of distributed new energy. In this paper, an AC-DC hybrid micro-grid operation topology with distributed new energy and distributed energy storage system access is designed, and on this basis, a coordinated control strategy of a micro-grid system based on distributed energy storage is proposed. To maintain the voltage stability of the DC bus and make each station have the power-sharing ability, the AC/DC flexibly interconnected converter should adopt two control strategies. The power can flow bidirectional in the power scheduling and distribution of the energy storage station; At the same time, different power distribution schemes will generate different scheduling costs. To optimize the operation of energy storage power stations, an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is adopted in this paper to optimize the scheduling task allocation scheme. The optimization objective is the lowest scheduling cost, to realize the optimal scheduling of energy storage power stations. In this paper, based on a Matlab/Simulink environment, a microgrid system based on an AC-DC hybrid bus is built. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed microgrid coordinated control strategy.
