Environmental issue is one of the key factors to industry area using fossil fuels, because it accelerates the global warming. So it is supposed to reduce greenhouse gases around the developed nations of the world at times go. This issue is especially for the power industry. Under this background, CHP system that consists of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) system, such as natural power system (wind, solar) and fuel-cell, co-generation, also known as CHP (Combined heat and power), has been developed greatly during the last 10 years. This paper adopts optimal model using GAMS to develop methods for conducting an integrated assessment of MicroGrid system.

The capacity constraints of tie-lines in production cost analysis are very important issues in the operation and planning of MicroGrid power systems. This paper presents the Harmony Search(HS) algorithm to solve the Economic Dispatch (ED) problem with tie-line capacity limits in MicroGrid system. The applied HS algorithm has achieved efficient and accurate solutions for three-area MicroGrid systems with renewable power units.

This paper presents an application of optimization method for efficient operation in micro grid. For operational efficiency, the objective function in a diesel generator consists of the fuel cost function similar to the cost functions used for the conventional fossil-fuel generating plants. The wind turbine generator is modeled by the characteristics of variable output. The cost function of fuel cell plant considers the efficiency of fuel cell. Particle swarm optimization(PSO) and sequential quadratic programming(SQP) are used for solving the problem of microgrid system operation. Also, from the results this paper presents the way to attend power markets which can buy and sell power from upper lever grids by connecting a various generation resources to micro grid.

This paper presents an optimal operation of microgrid systems and considering a tie-lines capacities that concerned each grid. The microgrid system consists of a wind turbine, a diesel generator, and a fuel cell. An one day load profile and wind resource for wind turbine generator were used for the study. For the grid interconnection, tie-line capacities were applied as constraints. The capacity constraints of tie-lines in production cost analysis are very important issues in the operation and planning of microgrid. In optimization, the Harmony Search (HS) algorithm is used for solving the problem of microgrid system operation which a various generation resources are available to meet the customer load demand with minimum operating cost. The application of HS algorithm to optimal operation of microgrid proves its effectiveness to determine optimally the generating resources without any differences of load mismatch.

Recently, regulation on carbon emissions has been strengthened according to the new climate change convention (COP21) held in Paris, and then Korea has decided to reduce CO2 emissions by 37% until 2030. As one of countermeasures, the government has energetically performed demonstration projects of island micro-grid including solar power, wind power and energy storage system. However, in order to smoothly introduce island micro-grid, it is a critical issue to carry out the economic evaluation for power utility aspect and independent power producer aspect. Therefore, this paper proposes economic evaluation algorithms of island micro-grid which are based on the present worth method, considering cost and benefit factors in the aspect of both sides. Firstly, in case of power utility this paper proposes algorithm to estimate a period of return on investment according to the introduction capacity of distributed generators replacing diesel generator. And also, in case of independent power producer, this paper proposes evaluation algorithm to estimate weighting factor of SMP and benefit rate based on break-even point related with cost and benefit. From a case study result on real island micro-grid model, it is confirmed that proposed algorithms are useful and practical for the economic evaluation of island micro-grid.

Micro Grid(MG)는 새로운 개념의 전력시스템으로 Smart Grid 기술의 일환으로 관심을 받고 있다. 기본적인 MG의 개념은 신/재생에너지를 포함한 분산전원의 도입 및 효율적인 계통운영이지만 여기에는 전력공급의 신뢰성과 경제성이 배제될 수 없는 요소임은 확실하다. MG라는 새로운 계통의 개념을 도입하는데 있어서 기존 전력계통(Utility Grid)과의 간섭, 신뢰도 및 전력품질의 문제들이 해결해야 하는 숙제로 떠오르고 있는데 이에 대한 대안 중 하나가 에너지저장기술이다. 그러나 본 기술은 아직까지는 초기투자비 및 운영유지비가 매우 높은 수준이기 때문에 MG의 설계에 있어서 신뢰도와 경제성을 함께 고려한 Energy Storage System(ESS)의 설치방법이 필요로 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 공급신뢰도기준을 충족할 수 있는 ESS의 최소필요용량 및 적정투자시점을 결정하는 확률론적 방법을 제안하고 이에 대한 사례연구를 수행하였다.

This paper presents a renewable energy configuration plan of Micro grid in Gapa Island. To analyze the characteristics of Micro grid, BESS (Battery Energy Storage System), PMSG (Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) and SCIG (Squirrel Cage Induction Generator) are first modelled. The PMSG and SCIG will operate with basis on the real power curve. when the total power demand is larger than the total power generation, the BESS will be operated and the SOC (State Of Charge) is reduced. If the value of SOC could drop down to limited value, the system may be broken because of the voltage drop of BESS. To solve this problem, a DG (Diesel Generator) is used to charge the BESS and keep the voltage value of BESS with in a allowance limit. This paper represents simulation result when PMSG, SCIG connected to the Micro grid installed in Gapa Island. The simulation is carry out by using PSCAD/EMTDC program with actual line constant and transformer parameter in Gapa Island.

This paper proposes a fault tolerant and high efficiency operation algorithm for a 4 LEG DC/DC converter for a battery energy storage system(BESS) forming a main power source in a standalone DC micro grid. The BESS for the main power supply in the stand-alone DC micro-grid is required to operate at high speed according to fault tolerant control and load by operating at all times. Fault-tolerance control changes the short-circuit fault to an open-circuit fault by using a fuse in case of leg fault in 4 legs, and operates stably through phase shift control. In addition, considering the loss of the power semiconductor, the number of LEG operation is adjusted to operate at high efficiency in the full load region. In this paper, fault tolerant control and high efficiency operation algorithm of DC/DC converter for BESS in standalone DC micro grid is presented and it is proved through simulation and experiment.
