Decoupling Droop Control Method for Power Distribution of Microgrid

Abstract:

How to ensure the security, stability and economic operation of microgrid in different operation modes is a difficult problem of microgrid research. There is active power and reactive power coupling in the regulation of frequencies and voltages because of the line parameter characteristics of microgrid. The defect of the traditional active power-frequency, reactive power-voltage droop control is analyzed and a novel decoupling droop control method for low voltage microgrid is proposed in this paper. At last, the multiple feedback loop control strategy for inverters on the basis of this proposed method and a microgrid simulation model are established. The comparative analysis between the new method and the traditional method based on the simulation results can prove that the proposed control method is simple in design, and it can assure an excellent power quality and realize the reasonable distribution of active power and reactive power between distributed generations.
