A battery storage control scheme for AC microgrids

This paper provides an overview of battery storage devices, including the most recent technologies, acceptable for AC microgrid applications. The corresponding control schemes for battery storage inverters are also discussed. The paper details a specific control scheme for a battery storage inverter, compatible with a decentralized AC microgrid architecture recently proposed by the authors. Simulation results illustrate advantages of the proposed control scheme and of the entire AC microgrid architecture.
