Abstract

Emergence of Microgrid (MG) has changed the structure of power system. On one hand, it opened opportunities to integrate renewable energy sources in islanding mode; on the other hand, the power and frequency have become the main hurdles during its islanding operation. In this paper, the droop control technique is used to counter the effect of frequency fluctuation at MG. Wind energy and Photovoltaics are the two renewable energy sources (RES) studied in work. Diesel generator is used to cater the frequency deviations due to intermittent nature of these RES. Microgrid Operator (MGO) is used as a centralized controller to look after all generating units and loads. The MGO sends a reference signal based upon the frequency deviation, which is calculated by the droop controller. This reference signal is sent to all generating units as well Electric Vehicles Operator (EVsO). All the generators and EVsO respond to that reference signal and adjust their generating power accordingly. Electric Vehicles (EV), operated by EVsO, remains in continuous contact with the MGO through communication link. In this work, a centralized approach for the operation of EVsO is employed. There are two main tasks of the EVsO. One is to calculate the cumulative power of all the EVs connected with the MG, by calculating their initial state of charge; and another is, to change the charging and discharging rate of EVs by stratifying the energy needs of both MG and EVs.
