Towards Stable and Efficient Microgrids: Integrating Centralized and Droop Control Techniques

Abstract

This study proposes an enhanced control strategy to address critical challenges in microgrids with distributed energy sources, particularly voltage stability and power-sharing issues. The approach utilizes a Microgrid Central Controller (MGCC) in conjunction with droop control techniques. Evaluations using real-world meteorological data and MATLAB/Simulink demonstrate significant improvements in microgrid performance. The effectiveness of this strategy highlights the importance of advanced control in optimizing renewable energy microgrid performance, paving the way for advancements in sustainable energy management.
