The terminal voltage is easily affected by the characteristics of loads and variations in wind speed, loads and system parameters in a stand-alone wind energy conversion system. This paper presents a terminal voltage control scheme that combines the equivalent-input-disturbance (EID) and model predictive control (MPC). The total disturbance is observed and compensated in real time by the EID. A battery energy storage system based on MPC is employed to smooth the fluctuation and imbalance in power caused by the variation in wind speed and loads, thereby solving the problem of terminal voltage flicker and instability. The appropriate terminal voltage can be obtained using the proposed scheme, which is a simple design and offers good prospects for actual applications. The simulation results demonstrate the validity of the proposed scheme.

A new energy management system (EMS) is presented for small scale microgrids (MGs). The proposed EMS focuses on minimizing the daily cost of the energy drawn by the MG from the main electrical grid and increasing the self-consumption of local renewable energy resources (RES). This is achieved by determining the appropriate reference value for the power drawn from the main grid and forcing the MG to accurately follow this value by controlling a battery energy storage system. A mixed integer linear programming algorithm determines this reference value considering a time-of-use tariff and short-term forecasting of generation and consumption. A real-time predictive controller is used to control the battery energy storage system to follow this reference value. The results obtained show the capability of the proposed EMS to lower the daily operating costs for the MG customers. Experimental studies on a laboratory-based MG have been implemented to demonstrate that the proposed EMS can be implemented in a realistic environment.
