Power management for hybrid micro-grids

Why is it important?

In the proposed power management or supervisory controller developed for a hybrid ac/dc micro-grid, the power flow in the micro-grid is supervised based on solving an optimization problem. Satisfying demanded power with maximum utilization of renewable resources, minimum usage of fuel-based generator, extending batteries lifetime, and limited utilization of the main power converter between the ac and dc micro-grids are important factors that are considered in this approach.

Perspectives

In the proposed optimal supervisory controller for hybrid AC/DC micro grid, uncertainties in the resources output power and generation forecast errors, along with static and dynamic constraints of the resources, are taken into account.
