Energy Management and Coordinated Control Strategies of Isolated Micro-Grid with Wind Turbines and Seawater Desalination Devices

Abstract:

The combined operation of large-scale off-grid wind turbines and energy-intensive seawater desalination devices will be one of the directions of the cleaner freshwater producing technology in the future. This paper discussed the operation modes and control strategies of isolated micro-grid with wind power, energy storage and seawater desalination equipments based on load characteristics of seawater desalination devices and operating characteristics of wind power, put forward energy management and coordinated control strategies to enhance the economical efficiency and stability of the system. Finally, a digital-analog simulation platform was build based on PXI+cRIO. The real-time simulations for various operating modes of this isolated micro-grid system verified the feasibility of the proposed strategies.
