Grid-connected micro-grid operational strategy evaluation : Investigation of how microgrid load configurations, battery energy storage system type and control can support system specificationMancuso, Martin January 2018 (has links)
Operational performance of grid-connected microgrid with integrated solar photovoltaic (PV) electricity production and battery energy storage (BES) is investigated. These distributed energy resources (DERs) have the potential to reduce conventionally produced electrical power and contribute to reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This investigation is based upon the DER’s techno-economic specifications and theoretical performance, consumer load data and electrical utility retail and distribution data. Available literature provides the basis for DER specification and performance. Actual consumer load profile data is available for residential and commercial consumer sector customers. The electrical utility data is obtained from Mälarenergi, AB. The aim is to investigate how to use simulations to specify a grid connected microgrid with DERs (PV production and a BES system) for two consumer sectors considering a range of objectives. An open-source, MATLAB-based simulation tool called Opti-CE has successfully been utilized. This package employs a genetic algorithm for multi-objective optimization. To support attainment of one of the objectives, peak shaving of the consumer load, a battery operational strategy algorithm has been developed for the simulation. With respect to balancing peak shaving and self-consumption one of the simulations supports specification of a commercial sector application with 117 kWp PV power rating paired with a lithium ion battery with 41.1 kWh capacity. The simulation of this system predicts the possibility to shave the customer load profile peaks for the month of April by 20%. The corresponding self-consumption ratio is 88%. Differences in the relationship between the load profiles and the system performance have been qualitatively noted. Furthermore, simulation results for lead-acid, lithium-ion and vanadium-redox flow battery systems are compared to reveal that lithium ion delivers the best balance between total annualized cost and peak shaving performance for both residential and commercial applications.

Análise do desempenho do Gerador de Indução Duplamente Alimentado DFIG em microrredesGomez, Luís Alejandro Gutierrez January 2016 (has links)
Orientador: Dra. Ahda Pionkoski Grilo Pavani / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal do ABC, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Elétrica, 2016. / Os Geradores de Indução Duplamente Alimentados, em inglês Doubly Fed Induction Generator DFIG, representam uma das tecnologias mais empregadas em sistemas eólicos. Devido à natureza intermitente do vento, o controle convencional usado por esses geradores procura operar o gerador em um ponto que garanta a máxima extração de potência da turbina eólica. Entretanto, usando apenas esta filosofia de controle, não é possível que estes geradores participem do controle de frequência da rede elétrica, pois o sistema mecânico e o sistema elétrico estão desacoplados devido à ação do conversor Back-to-Back. Como consequência, o DFIG não apresenta resposta de inércia. No entanto, em sistemas elétricos com alta penetração de geração eólica, ou sistemas que operam de forma ilhada como microrredes, a resposta de inércia do gerador eólico permite um melhor comportamento da frequência elétrica. Neste contexto, neste trabalho é estudado e analisado o comportamento do Gerador de Indução Duplamente Alimentado DFIG contribuindo para o suporte de frequência de uma microrrede, formada a partir de um ilhamento intencional. Para isso, foram realizadas simulações computacionais com ocorrência de ilhamento intencional, em que uma parte da rede de distribuição passa a operar de forma ilhada alimentada por um DFIG e um gerador síncrono. Com os resultados é possível analisar o desempenho do DFIG no suporte de frequência da rede elétrica considerando diferentes metodologias / Doubly Fed Induction Generators DFIG, represent one of the most used in wind power systems technologies. Due to the intermittent nature of wind, the conventional control used by these generators to operate the demand generator at a point that ensures maximum power extraction of the wind turbine. However, using only this control philosophy, it is not possible that these generators participate in frequency control the power supply for the mechanical system and the electrical system are uncoupled due to the action of the Back-to-Back converter. Consequently, the DFIG has not inertia response. However, in electric systems with high penetration of wind power generation, or systems that operate islanded micro-grids way, the wind power generator inertia response allows a better behavior of the electrical frequency. In this context, this work is studied and analyzed the Doubly Fed Induction Generator DFIG behavior contributing to the frequency support of a micro-grids formed from an unintentional islanding. To this end, computer simulations were performed with the occurrence of unintentional islanding, wherein a part of the distribution network shall operate islanded form fed by a DFIG and a synchronous generator. With the results it is possible to analyze the performance of DFIG in the grid frequency support considering different methodologies.

An iterative analytical design framework for the optimal designing of an off-grid renewable energy based hybrid smart micro-grid : a case study in a remote area - JordanHalawani, Mohanad January 2015 (has links)
Creative ways of utilising renewable energy sources in electricity generation especially in remote areas and particularly in countries depending on imported energy, while increasing energy security and reducing cost of such isolated off-grid systems, is becoming an urgently needed necessity for the effective strategic planning of Energy Systems. The aim of this research project was to design and implement a new decision support framework for the optimal design of hybrid micro grids considering different types of different technologies, where the design objective is to minimize the total cost of the hybrid micro grid while at the same time satisfying the required electric demand. Results of a comprehensive literature review, of existing analytical, decision support tools and literature on HPS, has identified the gaps and the necessary conceptual parts of an analytical decision support framework. As a result this research proposes and reports an Iterative Analytical Design Framework (IADF) and its implementation for the optimal design of an Off-grid renewable energy based hybrid smart micro-grid (OGREH-SμG) with intra and inter-grid (μG2μG & μG2G) synchronization capabilities and a novel storage technique. The modelling design and simulations were based on simulations conducted using HOMER Energy and MatLab/SIMULINK, Energy Planning and Design software platforms. The design, experimental proof of concept, verification and simulation of a new storage concept incorporating Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) fuel cell is also reported. The implementation of the smart components consisting Raspberry Pi that is devised and programmed for the semi-smart energy management framework (a novel control strategy, including synchronization capabilities) of the OGREH-SμG are also detailed and reported. The hybrid μG was designed and implemented as a case study for the Bayir/Jordan area. This research has provided an alternative decision support tool to solve Renewable Energy Integration for the optimal number, type and size of components to configure the hybrid μG. In addition this research has formulated and reported a linear cost function to mathematically verify computer based simulations and fine tune the solutions in the iterative framework and concluded that such solutions converge to a correct optimal approximation when considering the properties of the problem. As a result of this investigation it has been demonstrated that, the implemented and reported OGREH-SμG design incorporates wind and sun powered generation complemented with batteries, two fuel cell units and a diesel generator is a unique approach to Utilizing indigenous renewable energy with a capability of being able to synchronize with other μ-grids is the most effective and optimal way of electrifying developing countries with fewer resources in a sustainable way, with minimum impact on the environment while also achieving reductions in GHG. The dissertation concludes with suggested extensions to this work in the future.

Sistema de gerenciamento para a integração em CC de fontes alternativas de energia e armazenadores híbridos conectados a rede de distribuição via conversores eletrônicos / Energy management for integration of alternative sources and composite storage system connected to the gridBastos, Renan Fernandes 27 October 2016 (has links)
Esta tese de doutorado visa o estudo e o desenvolvimento de topologias e técnicas de controle para a integração de fontes alternativas tais como, solar e eólica acopladas a um barramento comum em corrente continua (CC) e conectá-las à rede de distribuição. O sistema contará também com elementos armazenadores como bancos de baterias e ultracapacitores, formando assim uma estrutura híbrida de armazenamento. Algoritmos de gerenciamento de energia serão implementados para que o perfil de injeção de potência na rede seja suave, eliminando as oscilações que são criadas, naturalmente, por fontes dependentes de fatores climáticos. Como consequência, os sistemas formados por fontes alternativas podem se tornar confiáveis e previsíveis, melhorando a capacidade de planejamento em um cenário cujos sistemas apresentem uma participação elevada na matriz energética. Duas metodologias de gerenciamento de energia são executadas neste trabalho, na primeira o ultracapacitor é gerenciado de modo a permitir a transferência de potência constante para a rede de distribuição em intervalos da ordem de minutos. A segunda estratégia se baseia no uso de banco de baterias combinado com ultracapacitores, formando uma estrutura híbrida de armazenamento. Nessa estrutura de gerenciamento, os armazenadores se comunicam entre si de forma a realizar um compartilhamento e filtragem de energia, fazendo com que transitórios de potência não sejam transmitidos para a rede de distribuição. Nesta estratégia, as baterias são responsáveis pelo fornecimento/absorção da potência média enquanto os ultracapacitores se encarregam dos transitórios. No segundo instante outras duas metodologias de divisão de carga são propostas para microrredes híbridas, contudo são baseadas em estratégias descentralizadas, ou seja, os armazenadores não se comunicam entre si para realizar o compartilhamento. Resultados experimentais e simulações irão comprovar a efetividade das metodologias de gerenciamento propostas. / This Ph.D. dissertation aims the study and development of topologies and control techniques to integrate various alternative sources such as solar and wind, coupled to a direct current (DC) common bus and connect them to the distribution grid. Storage devices such as battery banks and ultracapacitors will form a hybrid storage structure that is responsible for the power supplying in periods in which the sources are unable (times of the day in which the light incidence is low or when the wind amount is scarce). Power management algorithms will be implemented so the alternative sources and storage devices exchange energy, in order to make smoother the power injection profile in the grid, eliminating the fluctuations that are created naturally by alternative sources. With a smooth power profile, energy management systems based on alternative sources may become more reliable and predictable, improving planning capacity in a scenario in which the renewable energy sources have a high penetration in the energy matrix. To obtain such a result, two power management methodologies are executed; the first one is based on ultracapacitors and aims to deliver constant power to the distribution network, even when the power production is zero. However, this technique allows constant power just for a few minutes, once the ultracapacitor capacity is limited. The second strategy is based on the bank of batteries combined with ultracapacitors, forming the hybrid storage system. In this management structure, the storage devices communicate with each other in order to perform a power sharing, resulting in a filtrated power profile delivered to the distribution network. In this strategy, the batteries are responsible to providing average power while ultracapacitors are in-charge of the transient power, sparing the batteries from supplying power peaks. In a second moment, two other load sharing methodologies are proposed for hybrid systems, but are based on decentralized techniques, i.e. storage devices do not communicate with each other to make the power sharing. Experimental and simulated results will prove the effectiveness of the control strategies and management methodologies.

Contribution à l'étude de micro-réseaux autonomes alimentés par des sources photovoltaïques / Contribution to the study of autonomous micro-grid systems supplied by photovoltaic sourcesHouari, Azeddine 07 December 2012 (has links)
L'orientation énergétique actuelle vers le développement de systèmes électriques isolés, s'est traduit par l'établissement de nouvelles directives sur les performances et la fiabilité des structures de puissance mises en oeuvre, en particulier ceux à base d'énergies renouvelables. C'est dans ce contexte que s'inscrivent ces travaux de thèse, qui aboutissent à l'élaboration de nouveaux outils destinés à l'amélioration de la qualité d'énergie et de la stabilité d'un micro-réseau autonome. Concernant l'optimisation énergétique des interfaces de conversion pour un réseau autonome, nous avons développé de nouveaux algorithmes de commande basés sur le concept de platitude des systèmes différentiels. L'avantage de cette technique réside dans la possibilité d'implémentation de régulateurs à une boucle. Cela garantit des propriétés dynamiques élevées en asservissement et en régulation. De plus, une prédiction exacte de l'évolution des variables d'états du système est possible. Concernant la stabilité des micro-réseaux autonomes, nous avons proposé des outils pour traiter les phénomènes d'instabilités, causés notamment par la perte d'informations de charges et par le phénomène de résonance des filtres d'interconnexion / The actual electrical energy demand focuses on the development of stand-alone electrical systems which leads to the definition of new directives on performances and reliability of the electrical structures, especially those based on renewable energy. The main objective of this work concerns the development of new tools to improve the power quality and the stability of autonomous micro-grid systems. In this aim, new control algorithms based on the concept of differential flatness have been developed. The main advantage of the proposed technique is the possibility of implementing one loop controllers ensuring high dynamic properties. In the same time, it allows accurate prediction of the evolution of all state variables of the system. Concerning the stability of the autonomous micro-grid systems, we proposed tools to deal with instability phenomena either caused by the loss of load information and the resonance phenomenon of the passive filters

Conception et contrôle d’un générateur PV actif à stockage intégré : application à l’agrégation de producteurs-consommateurs dans le cadre d’un micro réseau intelligent urbain / Design and control of a PV active generator with integrated energy storages : application to the aggregation of producers and consumers In an urban micro smart gridLu, Di 16 December 2010 (has links)
L’intégration de panneaux photovoltaïques dans un système électrique réduit la consommation des sources fossiles et apporte des avantages environnementaux. Toutefois, l'intermittence et les fluctuations de puissance détériorent la qualité d’alimentation électrique. La solution proposée est d’ajouter des éléments de stockage, coordonnés par un contrôleur local qui gère les flux de puissance entre toutes les sources et la disponibilité énergétique. Ce générateur actif PV peut générer des références de puissance et fournir des services « système » au réseau électrique. Puis les concepts liés au micro réseau sont transposés pour concevoir un système central de gestion de l'énergie d'un réseau électrique résidentiel, qui est alimenté par des générateurs actifs PV et une micro turbine à gaz. Un réseau de communication est utilisé pour échanger des données et des références de puissance. Un système de gestion de l'énergie est développé avec différentes fonctions de contrôle sur des échelles de temps différentes afin de maximiser l'utilisation de l'énergie PV. Une planification opérationnelle quotidienne est conçue par un algorithme déterministe, qui utilise la prédiction d'énergie PV et de la charge. Puis ces références de puissance sont actualisées chaque demi-heure en tenant compte de la disponibilité de l’énergie PV et l’état des unités de stockage. Les erreurs de prévision et les incertitudes sont compensées par le réglage primaire de fréquence. Les résultats de simulation et les tests valident la conception de la commande du générateur actif photovoltaïque ainsi que le système central de gestion de l'énergie du réseau résidentiel étudié / The integration of PV power generation in a power system reduces fuel consumption and brings environmental benefits. However, the PV power intermittency and fluctuations deteriorate the power supply quality. A solution is proposed by adding energy storages, which are coordinated by a local controller that controls the power flow among all sources and implements an inner energy management. This PV based active generator can generate power references and can provide ancillary services in an electric network. Then micro grid concepts are derived to design a central energy management system of a residential network, which is powered by PV based active generators and a gas micro turbine. A communication network is used to exchange data and power references. An energy management system is developed with different time-scale functions to maximize the use of PV power. An operational daily planning is designed by a determinist algorithm, which uses 24 hour-ahead PV power prediction and load forecasting. Then power references are refreshed each half of an hour by considering the PV power availability and the states of energy storage units. Prediction errors and uncertainties are compensated by primary frequency controllers. Simulation and testing results validate the design of the PV active generator local controller and the central energy management system of the studied residential network
