Objective

The main objective of this project is to provide continuous supply to the emergency loads, harmonics mitigation, load balancing and power factor improvement.

Abstract

In this project, a Distributed Incremental Adaptive Filter (DIAF) controlled utility interfaced Photovoltaic (PV) - battery microgrid system is presented with power quality features. From protection aspects, grid tied solar inverters are required to shut down at loss of the utility. However, the multi-purpose PV-battery system is developed to provide energy to the critical loads, even at loss of distribution network. 

The bidirectional controlled converter with a battery also mitigates the intermittency of a PV array under rapid variations in the weather. The extracted maximum power is supplied to the Voltage Source Converter (VSC), which is transferred to the nonlinear loads and the utility. The distributed incremental adaptive filter is used to control the VSC with contribution of PV power and the battery. In addition, the DIAF control provides harmonics mitigation, load balancing and power factor improvement functionalities in order to deal with system connected with nonlinear loads.

A PV Power Feed-Forward (PVFF) term is incorporated in the current control for injection of active power to the utility as well as to improve the dynamic operation of residential PV-battery microgrid. The Battery Energy Storage (BES) reduces the fuel bills and it is also utilized to provide smoothing attributes to the microgrid.

Keywords: PV-battery microgrid, power quality and distributed incremental adaptive filter.
