Abstract

Abstract: This paper presents, an improved control strategy to reduce the DG Genset’s working hours in a solar photovoltaic (SPV) battery energy storage (BES) and DG Genset-based microgrid. The designed scheme is based on a set of rules, which are formulated by checking the status of the SPV array generation, BES, and load demand, and accordingly operates the microgrid with DG Genset or without DG Genset modes. Compared to the existing state-of-the-art scheme, the designed scheme operates the DG Genset during only an emergency, reducing its overall working hours. In addition, it provides a stable microgrid operation compared to the existing scheme, when the microgrid’s operating mode is shifted from one to another. Besides, DG Genset is operated at its rated power with a unity power factor, giving maximum fuel efficiency. The operation of a Dg Genset in Solar PV--BES-DG Based AC Micro grid is validated by performing several simulations in MATLAB/SIMULINK software.
