The proposed method adapts the battery energy storage system (BESS) to employ the same control architecture for grid-connected mode as well as the islanded operation with no need for knowing the micro-grid operating mode or switching between the corresponding control architectures.
In discharging mode, the control system is supposed to limit the battery current and avoid over-discharging throughout the time that battery regulates the DC voltage by the control of energy discharge.
When no mains power is available, and the system is in inverter mode, the following parameters control the depth of discharge: Low cell signals from 3rd party CAN-bus enabled BMS's are ignored. The system relies on the automatic protection inside Lithium cells to trip. What about the Sustain mode?
A two-level VSC is used to link DC and AC grids. Current-mode control approach is exploited for real/reactive power control at AC side. Thus, the amplitude and the phase angle of the VSC terminal voltage are controlled in a dq rotating reference frame. The DC-link voltage control is achieved through the control of real power component.
Furthermore, the control system provides effective charging of the battery in the micro-grid. In order to achieve the system operation under islanding conditions, a coordinated strategy for the BESS, RES and load management, including load shedding and considering battery SoC and battery power limitation, is proposed.
The battery charging process is simulated in this case. For this purpose, the DC micro-grid is supposed to be connected to an external AC micro-grid, a portion of the demanded load is supplied by the PV and the insufficient power plus the battery charging power is provided by the GS-VSC by means of rectifying the AC power.
