Abstract

This paper describes the autonomous operation analysis of DC microgrid based on droop control. In order to verify the whole system operation, detailed simulation models for wind power generation, solar power generation, and battery were developed with user-defined models programmed with C-code in PSCAD/ EMTDC software. The simulation results confirm that the DC microgrid with droop control make it feasible to provide power to the load with stable manner. Based on simulation results a prototype of DC microgrid was built and tested in the lab to verify the autonomous operation experimentally. The droop control scheme can suppress the circulating current, and offers each unit to be controlled autonomously without any communication link.

본 논문에서는 분산전원으로 풍력과 태양광, 에너지저장으로 배터리, 직류부하, 그리고 교류연계전력망으로 구성된 직류 마이크로그리드에서 Droop 제어를 기반으로 한 시스템의 자율동작을 분석한 내용에 대해 기술하고 있다. 자율동작의 분석을 위해 먼저 PSCAD/EMTDC 소프트웨어를 이용해 각 분산전원과 배터리의 시뮬레이션 모델을 개발하고 이를 바탕으로 Droop 제어를 검증하였다. 또한 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 3kW급 DC마이크로그리드의 하드웨어를 제작하여 실제적인 자율동작의 타당성을 분석하였다.
