The PVF or PV<sup>2</sup>F<sup> </sup>double droop control is commended for its ability to regulate both the dc voltage and frequency in a decentralized approach. However, a convincing response is not achieved due to an interaction between the droop characteristics of dc voltage and frequency. This interaction affects the dc voltage and frequency support of the AC system surrounded Multi-Terminal HVDC (AC-MTDC) grid. To overcome this effect, a Duo control strategy is proposed in this paper, which takes advantage of a Bi-polar Voltage Source Converter (B-VSC) topology in the MTDC grid. The virtue of proposed control technique is emphasized by comparing it with the existing $ PV<sup>2</sup>F double droop control along with three case studies and two test systems. The validation of interaction less Duo control strategy is carried out on five terminal CIGRE DC grid benchmark model integrated into two area power system (AC-MTDC grid-1) and New England IEEE 39 bus system (AC-MTDC grid-2). These test systems are simulated in PSCAD/EMTDC software.

The continuous development of alternative energy has put forward higher requirement for electricity transmission. To cope with its fluctuation characteristics, high voltage direct current (HVDC) technology has received more attention. Voltage Source Converter (VSC) based Multi-Terminal High Voltage Direct Current (MTDC) represents the future trend of HVDC technology. This paper mainly focuses on the control strategies of a four-terminal VSC based MTDC power transmission system. The operation characteristic of the system was studied, and the proposed two control strategies, master-slave control strategy and DC voltage droop control strategy, were verified through simulations. The latter control strategy was proved to be performing well under various conditions, including converter station disconnection and faults at AC side of the converter.

This paper presents a power control strategy for a marine power system made up of a hybrid diesel generator, a fuel cell, and an energy storage unit. For this purpose, a self-tuning fuzzy control is designed to manage the power generation between power sources during different maneuverings and voltage disturbances (both balanced and unbalanced) in an AC system. As a solution, a current control strategy using a voltage source converter is presented. Simulation results show the response of the whole system under a test driving cycle and this variety of voltage disturbance conditions. They illustrate the performance, including power flow control and voltage disturbance ride-through capability, of the proposed control strategy.

This paper presents a dynamic model of Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES) device developed, which can significantly decrease the voltage and power fluctuations of grid connected fixed speed wind generators. The SMES system with a voltage–source IGBT converter and two–quadrant DC–DC chopper is analyzed as a controllable energy source. The objective of the proposed SMES control strategy is to smooth the wind farm output by absorbing or providing real power. Moreover, its reactive power output can also be controlled to keep the wind farm terminal voltage constant. The control methodology of SMES system is suitable for the two objectives stated above. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated by dynamic simulations using a test power system. Real wind speed data is used in the simulation analyses, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy. Simulation results clearly show that the proposed control strategy can smooth well the wind generator output power and also maintain the terminal voltage at rated level. Key words: Minimization of fluctuations; superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES); wind generator stabilization; voltage source converter (VSC); DC–DC chopper

The control strategy of PWM-VSC directly using the switch variable in dq rotating reference frame as input variables. The fuzzy logic controller proposes to get a DC voltage variation stable by adjusting amplitudo of the network current. The simulation Fuzzy Logic Controller results show that the design fuzzy logic produce a good dynamic of DC voltage and DC motor speed without overshoot.

There are many solar power and wind stations installed in the power system for environmental and economic reasons. In fact, wind energy is inexpensive and the safetest among all sources of renewable energy, it has been recognized that variable speed wind turbine based on the doubly fed induction generator. It is the most effective with less cost and high power yield. This paper has chosen doubly fed induction generator for a comprehensive study of modelling, performance and analysing. DFIG wind turbine has to operate below and above synchronous speed which requires smooth transition mode change for reliable operation to be controlled to provide stability for the power system. Hence its performance depends on the generator itself and the converter operation and control system.

Recently, the penetration of energy storage systems and photovoltaics has been significantly expanded worldwide. In this regard, this paper presents the enhanced operation and control of DC microgrid systems, which are based on photovoltaic modules, battery storage systems, and DC load. DC–DC and DC–AC converters are coordinated and controlled to achieve DC voltage stability in the microgrid. To achieve such an ambitious target, the system is widely operated in two different modes: stand-alone and grid-connected modes. The novel control strategy enables maximum power generation from the photovoltaic system across different techniques for operating the microgrid. Six different cases are simulated and analyzed using the MATLAB/Simulink platform while varying irradiance levels and consequently varying photovoltaic generation. The proposed system achieves voltage and power stability at different load demands. It is illustrated that the grid-tied mode of operation regulated by voltage source converter control offers more stability than the islanded mode. In general, the proposed battery converter control introduces a stable operation and regulated DC voltage but with few voltage spikes. The merit of the integrated DC microgrid with batteries is to attain further flexibility and reliability through balancing power demand and generation. The simulation results also show the system can operate properly in normal or abnormal cases, thanks to the proposed control strategy, which can regulate the voltage stability of the DC bus in the microgrid with energy storage systems and photovoltaics.

AbstractA multi-terminal voltage-source-converter (VSC) based high voltage direct current (HVDC) system is concerned for its flexibility and reliability. In this study, a control strategy for multiple VSCs is proposed to auto-share the real power variation without changing control mode, which is based on “dc voltage droop” power regulation functions. With the proposed power regulation design, the multiple VSCs automatically share the real power change and the VSC-HVDC system is stable even under loss of any one converter while there is no overloading for any individual converter. Simulation results show that it is effective to balance real power for power disturbance and thus improves operation reliability for the multi-terminal VSC-HVDC system by the proposed control strategy.

Direct current microgrids (DCMGs) are currently presented as an alternative solution for small systems that feed sensitive electrical loads into DC. According to the scientific literature, DCMG maintains good voltage regulation. However, when the system is in islanded mode, very pronounced voltage variations are presented, compromising the system’s ability to achieve reliable and stable energy management. Therefore, the authors propose a solution, connecting the electrical network through a grid-tied voltage source converter (GVSC) in order to reduce voltage variations. A coordinated control strategy between the DCMG and GVSC is proposed to regulate the DC voltage and find a stable power flow between the various active elements, which feed the load. The results show that the control strategy between the GVSC and DCMG, when tested under different disturbances, improves the performance of the system, making it more reliable and stable. Furthermore, the GVSC supports the AC voltage at the point of common coupling (PCC) without reducing the operating capacity of the DCMG and without exceeding even its most restrictive limit. All simulations were carried out in MATLAB 2020.
