Control Strategy Scheme for Consistent Power Flow Control in Meshed DC Micro-grids
Résumé
Recently, DC Micro-grids have been a focus of numerous researches and some industrial deployments are starting [1]. The interest is due to several advantages in comparison to AC Micro-grids in terms of efficiency, minimum number of devices, no need for frequency/phase control, modularity and reliability. Moreover, it enables an easy integration of renewable energy resources, particularly photovoltaic ones. This paper targets meshed DC Micro-grid while most of literature papers concern radial DC Micro-grids. It will bring several remarkable benefits: redundancy, better utilization of installed converters, flexible configuration, enhanced system reliability and availability especially in case of line faults [2]. In meshed DC grids, the control strategy of current or power becomes a critical issue particularly if a modular and generic solution is researched. The paper focuses on the use of smart-nodes controlling the power flow in the grid. The proposed control strategy is presented and some simulation results are presented. Some reduce scale tests are presented based on a DSPACE system.
