Optimized operation and stabilization of microgrids with multiple energy resources

A microgrid supply/demand control system is proposed. In this control system, operation planning is realized based on generation and load forecasting by using artificial neural network and fuzzy systems. Unit commitment of generation includes start/stop of power generation and energy storage. Load following function is accomplished based on PI control scheme. To compensate for the power fluctuation in microgrid, power system stabilizer with EDLC is proposed.
