Operation and regulation scheme and the application for microgrids

Based on the typical structure and devices of microgrids, this paper presents an operation and regulation scheme and develops its application. The scheme focuses on three kinds of microgrids' manipulations, i.e. key equipment switching, operation mode switching and black start. The scheme builds detailed operation models for key devices and presents the procedures of the typical manipulations. Based on the scheme, an operation and regulation simulation system (ORSS) for microgrids is developed with the field data. In order to test the performance, the developed system is deployed to the microgrid of Island Nanji in China. The application demonstrates that the scheme and the related system effectively enhance the safety and reliability of microgrid operation.
