ABSTRACT

Owing to several operational drawbacks in the existing power management schemes for interlinked AC-DC micro grids which are either concerned about only on sharing power or regulation of voltage but not on both, so as to overcome these issues this paper is proposed. This proposed autonomous power management scheme will consider the specific loading condition of the DC micro grid before importing power from the interlinked AC micro grid. This strategy not only enables voltage regulation in the DC micro grid but also reduces the number of converters in operation which will in turn reduces the power transfer losses. The proposed scheme is fully self governed as it holds on the plug-n play features for generators and tie-converters. The performance of the proposed control scheme has been validated under different operating scenarios. The results reveal the usefulness  of the proposed scheme in managing the shortcoming of power in the DC micro grid efficiently and autonomously, on the other hand maintaining the better  voltage  regulation in the DC micro grid. In this project a DG interfacing network and its control also to be simulated to analyze the system stability The results are verified through MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
