System Modeling and Simulation of Intentionally Islanded Reconfigurable Microgrid

Abstract:

Microgrid reconfiguration plays important role in improving continuity of power supply especially in the event of fault within the power grid or microgrid connected to the medium voltage distribution network. Due to the fault in power grid, intentional islanding through static switch is one possible solution while, fault within the microgrid emphasizes microgrid reconfiguration to recover maximum affected loads in each isolated zone. This paper presents multiagent system based (MAS) approach in order to withstand stably and autonomously in the event of fault within microgrid or power grid. MAS approach includes negotiation agent (NA) for the entire microgrid and bus agent (BA) for each bus within each zone. NA is responsible for selecting a Dominant-BA from each zone and prioritizing the zones by using region weight coefficient (RWC) method. Zone having excessive power will recombine with the zone having lesser power for maintaining power quality of sensitive and less sensitive loads, while normal loads are shed.
