Abstract
This paper investigates on the active and reactive power sharing of an autonomous hybrid microgrid. Unlike existing microgrids which are purely ac, the hybrid microgrid studied here comprises dc and ac sub-grids, interconnected by power electronic interfaces. The main challenge here is to manage the power flow among all the sources distributed throughout the two types of sub-grids, which certainly is tougher than previous efforts developed for only either ac or dc microgrid. This wider scope of control has not yet been investigated, and would certainly rely on the coordinated operation of dc sources, ac sources and interlinking converters. Suitable control and normalization schemes are therefore developed for controlling them with results presented for showing the overall performance of the hybrid microgrid.

A decentralized adaptive droop based power management scheme in autonomous DC microgrid

TL;DR: In this paper, a decentralized priority based adaptive droop control strategy is proposed to charge/discharge the batteries proportionately to achieve energy equivalence in an autonomous DC microgrid, which takes care of changing demand subject to the intermittent behaviour of solar PV array, slow dynamics of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and battery longevity constraints.

TL;DR: Flexible controllers for the interlinking converter (ILC) and interfacing converters (IFCs) used in coupled hybrid AC/DC microgrids (HMGs) minimise the need for the controller parameter tuning as opposed to the conventional controllers used in zonal HMG systems.

Hierarchical control of droop-controlled DC and AC microgrids — a general approach towards standardization

TL;DR: The hierarchical control derived from ISA-95 and electrical dispatching standards to endow smartness and flexibility to MGs is presented and results are provided to show the feasibility of the proposed approach.

Microgrid: a conceptual solution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a system approach which views generation and associated loads as a subsystem or a "microgrid". During disturbances, the generation and corresponding loads can separate from the distribution system to isolate the microgrid's load from the disturbance (providing UPS services) without harming the transmission grid's integrity.

Control of parallel connected inverters in stand-alone AC supply systems

TL;DR: In this article, a control scheme for parallel-connected inverters in a standalone AC supply system is presented, which uses feedback of only those variables that can be measured locally at the inverter and does not need communication of control signals between the inverters.

A Voltage and Frequency Droop Control Method for Parallel Inverters

TL;DR: In this paper, a new control method for the parallel operation of inverters operating in an island grid or connected to an infinite bus is described, where each inverter supplies a current that is the result of the voltage difference between a reference ac voltage source and the grid voltage across a virtual complex impedance.

Adaptive Decentralized Droop Controller to Preserve Power Sharing Stability of Paralleled Inverters in Distributed Generation Microgrids

TL;DR: In this paper, an adaptive decentralized droop controller of paralleled inverter-based distributed generation (DG) units is presented to preserve the power sharing stability, which is based on the static droop characteristics combined with an adaptive transient droop function.
