Modeling Processes in Microgrids with Renewable Energy Sources

Abstract

In this article, we simulate the work of a microgrid, based on renewable energy sources, and conduct physical modeling, based on the equipment of the laboratory complex "INTELLIGENT POWER SYSTEMS WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES" describing the work with software. The article provides the characteristics of the blocks, which simulate these or those aggregates in a real microgrid. Besides, the article considers the creation of a SCADA system and a special control code. The main problem of microgrids with renewable energy sources is associated with the instability of power generation in the RES-based plants due to weather changes. A complete electrical circuit to connect the units in a laboratory complex is presented.
