MicroGrid and Energy Storage System COMPLETE DETAILS NEW PPT Abin Baby
A microgrid is a localized grouping of electricity generation, energy storage, and loads that normally operates connected to a traditional centralized grid (macrogrid). This single point of common coupling with the macrogrid can be disconnected. The microgrid can then function autonomously. Generation and loads in a microgrid are usually interconnected at low voltage. From the point of view of the grid operator, a connected microgrid can be controlled as if it were one entity.
Microgrid generation resources can include fuel cells, wind, solar, or other energy sources. The multiple dispersed generation sources and ability to isolate the microgrid from a larger network would provide highly reliable electric power. Produced heat from generation sources such as micro turbines could be used for local process heating or space heating, allowing flexible trade off between the needs for heat and electric power.
In microgrid, if fault occurs or any other contingency happens, then the problems would be created which are related to power flow, also there are various protection schemes are used for minimize or eliminate these problems.
Voltage control is used for reactive power balance and P-f control is used for active power control.
Various protection schemes such as, over current protection, differential protection scheme, zoning of network in adaptive protection scheme are used in microgrid system .
These slides are all about Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs). An introduction to PMU is presented as a preliminary knowledge for the course 'Distribution Generation and Smart Grid'. Your valuable suggestions are welcome.

Overview: Simulation Analysis of low voltage DC micro grid - An investigation...IJSRD
The micro grid concept has the potential to solve major problems arising from large penetration of distributed generation in distribution systems. The micro grid was designed to operate connected to the main network. The micro grid operated appropriately for different steady state operating conditions. A proper control strategy should be implemented for a successful operation of a micro grid. This paper presents a performance study of a dc micro-grid when it is used a voltage droop technique to regulated the grid voltage and to control the load sharing between different sources like Photovoltaic cell , Fuel Cell, Batteries, etc. Some aspects about centralized (master-slave) and decentralized (voltage droop) control strategies are presented. In this paper, the work done in the field of Micro Grid has been reviewed.

Intelligent Power Management of Islanded DC Microgrid based on Droop Fuzzy Co...AI Publications
This paper presents a new intelligent control strategy for DC microgrid in islanded operation mode based on droop control method. The DC microgrid under study included a Wind Turbine Generator (WTG), photovoltaic (PV), battery energy storage system (BESS) and a linear resistive load. According to the proposed method, each of distributed generation (DG) sources and BESS can be deployed independently within any controlled microgrid through the fuzzy control strategy. Proposed fuzzy control regulated virtual resistance of DGs and BESS unit locally and real-time based on the available power of DGs and the battery state of charge (SOC), to coordinate the module performances independently and establish the power balance and regulating DC bus voltage. Proposed control strategy for BESS enables the microgrid to supply independently the power required for the load demand when the DGs are not capable of supplying the required power to the load. The proposed fuzzy control strategy was applied locally and without dependency on the telecommunication links or any centralized energy management system. In order to validate the proposed method, the control system was implemented on a DC microgrid within MATLAB/SIMULINK, where the simulation results were analyzed and validated.

The energy sector is moving into the era of distributed generation (DG) and microgrids
(MGs). The stability and operation aspects of converter-dominated DG MGs, however, are faced by
many challenges. To overcome these difficulties, this paper presents a new large-signal-based control
topology for DG power converters that is suitable for both grid connected and islanding modes of
operation without any need to reconfigure the control system and without islanding detection. To
improve MG stability and to guarantee stability and high performance of the MG system during sudden
harsh transients such as islanding, grid reconnection, and large load power changes, a nonlinear MG
stabilizer is proposed. We propose a novel control topology for microgrids which can work in both grid
connected and islanding modes without reconfiguration so it does not require islanding detection
technique, the controller is based on the concept of synchronverter In this paper, a radical step is taken
to improve the synchronverter as a self-synchronized synchronverter by removing the dedicated
synchronization unit
Reactive Power Sharing Droop Control Strategy for DG Units in an Islanded Mic...IJMTST Journal
The proposed method mainly includes two important operations: error reduction operation and voltage
recovery operation. The sharing accuracy is improved by the sharing error reduction operation, which is
activated by the low-bandwidth synchronization signals. However, the error reduction operation will result in
a decrease in output voltage amplitude. Therefore, the voltage recovery operation is proposed to compensate
the decrease., due to increasing the demand of electricity as well as rapid depletion of fossil fuels, and the
government policies on reduction of greenhouse gas emissions , renewable energy technologies are more
attractive and various types of distributed generation sources, such as wind turbine generators and solar
photo voltaic panels are being connected to low-voltage distribution networks. Micro grid is an integrated
system that contain in s distributed generation sources, control systems, load management, energy storage
and communication infrastructure capability to work in both grid connected and island mode to optimize
energy usage. The paper presents a advanced control technique for a micro grid system which works
efficiently under a decentralized control system.
This paper presents a thorough control structure of the distributed generators inside the microgrid during both grid-connected and islanded operation modes. These control structures of the DGs voltage source inverters are implemented in synchronous reference frame (SRF) and controlled using linear PI controllers. By implementing the control structures, the desired real and reactive power can be efficiently transferred to the local loads and the utility load by the microgrid generating units. A modified droop control technique is introduced to facilitate the microgrid performance during both modes of operation. The active and reactive power sharing of the load demand between the utility grid and the microgrid can be performed by this drop control technique during the islanded mode. The system performance during intentional islanding event and utility load increase is investigated. The effectiveness of the offered control structures is confirmed through simulation results during both modes of operation.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

2. A microgrid is a small-scale power grid that can operate
independently or collaboratively with other small power grids.
The practice of using micro-grids is known as distributed,
dispersed, decentralized, discrete or embedded energy
production.
Any small-scale, localized power station that has its own
generation and storage resources and definable boundaries can
be considered a microgrid. If the microgrid can be integrated
with the area's main power grid, it is often referred to as a
hybrid microgrid.
3.
4. Micro-grids are typically supported by generators or
renewable wind and solar energy resources and are often
used to provide backup power or supplement the main power
grid during periods of heavy demand.
A microgrid strategy that integrates local wind or solar
resources can provide redundancy for essential services and
make the main grid less susceptible to localized disaster.
A microgrid is a local energy grid with control capability,
which means it can disconnect from the traditional grid and
operate autonomously.
5.
6. Microgrid is an integration platform for supply-side (micro-
generation), storage units and demand resources
(controllable loads) located in a local distribution grid.
A microgrid should be capable of handling both normal state
(grid-connected) and emergency state (islanded operation)
The difference between a microgrid and a passive grid
penetrated by the micro-sources lies mainly in terms of
management and coordination of available resources
7.
8. In order to work, micro-grids must include three essential components:
Locally produced energy to ensure they can operate independently in the
event they are disconnected (photovoltaic panels, wind turbines,
cogeneration, heat pumps, biomass plants, hydroelectric turbines, etc.)
and an additional back-up supply of energy (power generators). In
theory indeed, microgrids can go completely off the grid, but so far this
rarely occurs in practice;
A storage system: batteries, a supply of water for pumped-storage
hydroelectricity and, in the future, super-capacitors and a chemical-
based latent-heat storage system;
A smart management system to ensure the continuous balance between
electricity generation and demand.
9. A microgrid connects to the grid at a point of common
coupling that maintains voltage at the same level as the main
grid unless there is some sort of problem on the grid or other
reason to disconnect. A switch can separate the microgrid
from the main grid automatically or manually, and it then
functions as an island.
10. Provides power quality, reliability, and security for end
users and operators of the grid
Enhances the integration of distributed and renewable
energy sources
Cost competitive and efficient
Enables smart grid technology integration
Locally controlled power quality
Minimize carbon footprint and green house gas emissions
by maximizing clean local energy generation
Increased customer (end-use) participation
11. DG: It can be various types of new energy such as PV, Energy
storage (ES), Wind, Fuel cell; or combined heat and power (CHP),
combined cooling, heat and power (CCHP).
Loads: It includes common load and critical loads.
ES: It includes physical, chemical, and electromagnetic forms,
for storage of renewable energy, load shifting, and black-start of
microgrid
Control Devices: They constitute the control systems for DGs,
ESs, and transfer between grid connected mode and islanded
mode, facilitating real time monitoring and energy management
12. An AC microgrid
connects to the
distribution network
via an AC bus
ES and DG are
connected to the AC
bus via inverter
No inverter is
required for power
supply to AC loads
Control and
operation are difficult
13. In a DC microgrid, DG, ES, and DC load
are connected to the DC bus via a converter
and the DC bus is connected to AC loads via
an inverter to power both DC and AC loads
As DG control solely depends on DC
voltage, it is easier to realize coordinated
operation of the DGs
DG and load fluctuations are
compensated by ES on the DC side
Compared with an AC microgrid, a DC
microgrid is easier to control, does not
involve synchronisation among DGs, and
thus it is easier to suppress circulating
current
Inverters are required for power supply to
AC loads
14. An AC/DC hybrid
microgrid is a microgrid
consisting of an AC bus
and a DC bus
AC bus and DC bus
allow for direct supply to
AC loads and DC loads
15. Simple microgrid: <2 MW
Corporate microgrid: 2-5 MW
Feeder area microgrid: 5-20 MW
Sub-station area microgrid: >20 MW
Independent microgrid: Depending on the
loads on an island, a mountainous area or a
village
16. Simple microgrid: A simple microgrid contains only one type of DG, has simple
functions and design, and is intended for use of CCHP or continuous supply of
continuous loads
Multi-DG microgrid: A multi-DG microgrid is composed of multiple simple
microgrids or multiple type of complementary, coordinated DGs. Compared with a
simple microgrid, the design and operation of such a grid are much more
complicated. Some loads need to be identified as sheddable loads in case of
emergency to maintain power balance in an emergency.
Utility microgrid: All DGs and microgrids that meet specific technical conditions
can be integrated into a utility microgrid. In such a microgrid, loads are prioritized
based on users requirements on reliability, and high priority loads will be powered
preferentially in an emergency.
17. Micro-grids can be integrated into grids at the following three
voltages:
1. 380 V
2. 10 KV
3. A hybrid of 380 V and 10 KV
18. The principal roles of the microgrid control structure are:
Voltage and frequency regulation for both operating modes;
Proper load sharing and DER coordination;
Microgrid resynchronization with the main grid;
Power flow control between the microgrid and the main grid;
Optimizing the microgrid operating cost.
21. The primary control provides the reference points for the voltage and
current control loops of DERs. These inner control loops are commonly
referred to as zero-level control. The zero level control is generally
implemented in either PQ or voltage control modes.
The primary control is designed to satisfy the following requirements:
To stabilize the voltage and frequency. Subsequent to an islanding event,
the microgrid may lose its voltage and frequency stability due to the
mismatch between the power generated and consumed.
To offer plug and play capability for DERs and properly share the active
and reactive power among them, preferably, without any communication
links.
To mitigate circulating currents that can cause over-current phenomenon
in the power electronic devices and damage the DC-link capacitor.
22.
23. Primary control, may cause frequency deviation even in steady state.
Although the storage devices can compensate for this deviation, they are
unable to provide the power for load-frequency control in long terms
due to their short energy capacity.
The secondary control, as a centralized controller, restores the microgrid
voltage and frequency and compensate for the deviations caused by the
primary control.
This control hierarchy is designed to have slower dynamics response
than that of the primary, which justifies the decoupled dynamics of the
primary and the secondary control loops and facilitates their individual
designs.
24.
25. Tertiary control is the last (and the slowest) control level that
considers the economical concerns in the optimal operation
of the microgrid, and manages the power flow between
microgrid and main grid.
In the grid-tied mode, the power flow between microgrid and
main grid can be managed by adjusting the amplitude and
frequency of DERs voltages.
30. Microgrid may operate either in grid connected or in islanded
mode
Grid connected mode of operation is further divided into power
matched operation and power mismatched operation according
to power exchange.
The microgrid is connected to the distribution network via a PCC
31. In grid connected mode, the
microgrid is connected to and
exchanges power with the
distribution system of the utility
grid via PCC
Utility grid is active
Static switch is closed
All the feeders are supplied by
the grid
Adopt P-Q control
32. Islanded operation means that the
microgrid is disconnected from the
distribution system of the main grid at
the PCC following a grid failure or as
scheduled, and that the DGs, Ess, and
loads within the microgrid operate
independently.
Static switch is open
Feeder A,B,C are supplied by micro-
sources
Feeder D is dead.
Adopts V-f control mode
33. Efficiency of conventional grid is low compared to microgrid.
Large amount of energy in the form of heat is wasted in
conventional grid.
Power sources in the microgrid are small and located close to
the load.
34. Distributed resources (DRs) that can be connected to the
power grid can be grouped as:
1. Electronically interfaced generators
2. Rotating machine interfaced generators
Electronic interfaced DRs are inverter-based units.
Rotating machine interfaced DRs are induction or
synchronous generator based units.
35. Microgrid generation resources can include fuel cells, wind, solar, or
other sustainable energy sources.
Multiple dispersed generation sources and ability to isolate the
microgrid from a larger network provides highly reliable electric power.
By product heat from generation sources such as micro turbines could
be used for local process heating or space heating, allowing flexible
trade off between the needs for heat and electric power.
Generate power locally to reduce dependence on long distance
transmission lines and cut transmission losses.
36. Voltage, frequency and power quality are the three main
parameters that must be considered and controlled to acceptable
standards whilst the power and energy balance is maintained.
Electrical energy needs to be stored in battery banks or as
mechanical energy in flywheels thus requiring more space and
maintenance.
Resynchronisation with the utility grid need to be made carefully.
Microgrid protection is one of the most important challenges
facing the implementation of micro-grids
37. A Virtual Power Plant is a network of decentralized, medium-scale power
generating units such as wind farms, solar parks, and Combined Heat and
Power (CHP) units, as well as flexible power consumers and storage systems.
The interconnected units are dispatched through the central control room of
the Virtual Power Plant but nonetheless remain independent in their
operation and ownership.
The objective of a Virtual Power Plant is to relieve the load on the grid by
smartly distributing the power generated by the individual units during
periods of peak load.
Additionally, the combined power generation and power consumption of the
networked units in the Virtual Power Plant is traded on the energy exchange.
38. Virtual power plants- a term frequently used interchangeably
with micro-grids – rely upon software systems to remotely and
automatically dispatch and optimize generation or demand side
or storage resources in a single, secure Web-connected system.
In short VPPs represent an ‘Internet of energy’, trapping existing
grid networks to tailor electricity supply and demand services for
the customer, maximizing value for both end user and
distribution utility through software innovations.
The beauty of the VPP is that it can optimize the entire system
without the need for large capital investments in infrastructure.
39. Microgrids can be grid-tied or off-grid remote systems (VPPs are always
grid-tied)
Microgrids can ‘island’ themselves from the larger utility grid (VPPs don't
offer this contingency)
Microgrids typically require some level of storage (whereas VPPs may or may
not feature storage)
Microgrids are dependent upon hardware innovations such as inverters and
smart switches (whereas VPPs are heavily dependent upon smart meters and
IT)
Micro-grids encompass a static set of resources in a confined geography
(whereas VPPs can mix and match among a diversity of resources over large
geographic regions).
Consumer interest: A microgrid focuses on the satisfaction of local
consumption. (while VPP deals with consumption only as a flexible resource
that participates in the aggregate power trading via DSI remuneration)
40. Microgrids typically only tap DER at the retail distribution level
(whereas VPPs can also create a bridge to wholesale markets)
Microgrids still face regulatory and political hurdles (whereas VPPs
can, more often than not, be implemented under current regulatory
structures and tariffs)
Size: The installed capacity of microgrids is typically relatively small
from few KW to several MW (While the VPPs power rating can be
much larger)
Locality: In a microgrid, DER are located within the same local
distribution network and they aim to satisfy primarily local demand.
(In a VPP, DERs are not necessarily located on the same local network
and they are coordinated over a wide geographical area. The VPP
aggregated production participates in traditional trading in normal
energy markets)
