Trust and Power Factor Regulation Based Power Control Scheme for High Penetration Photovoltaic

Abstract:

While lots of works have been done regarding low penetration photovoltaic (PV), high penetration PV has not been well investigated in the literature, especially the issues such as supply reliability and power utilization efficiency. In this paper, we first present a modified microgrid model for high penetration PV. Within the architecture of the proposed microgird, we then design a trust based active power matching scheme for efficient power usage. Power factor regulation is also used to keep the microgird running steadily. Finally, simulation results are shown to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
