Abstract

Modern power system is undergoing a gradual change from conventional sources of energy to renewable sources. This change requires restructuring of the power system so as to support the integration without compromising the security and stability. The power system itself is divided into smaller subsystems and the operation of these subsystems which are critical for the successful operation of the entire grid. Power electronics is the center of attraction for the change from typical AC grid to DC grids and microgrids. Much research is being carried out to develop high accuracy and low loss converters such as DC to DC and DC to AC. This paper presents a kind of DC-DC converter which is employed with a DC grid for voltage support. A photovoltaic system is linked to the DC/DC converter and the converter modeled in a way to support the grid voltage in case the demand varies. The simulations are obtained in PSCAD-EMTDC. The results show the DC to DC converter supports the grid in peak demands.
