Efficiency, standard and security of a micro-grid can be tested by measuring the voltage regulation in the DC bus. Photovoltaic micro-grid are prone to time invariant and non-linearity due to variation in solar irradiance. Energy storage device is incorporated to overcome such variations. Traditionally using PI controllers, we can control the charging and dis-charging of battery which only regulates voltage in the bus but it fails to control the fluctuations in the DC bus. Therefore, Fuzzy PI controller is proposed in this paper where it employs the intelligent controlling method thereby reducing the fluctuations in the DC bus.
Keywords—Fuzzy, PI, Fuzzy-PI, DC-micro-grid, closed loop control, voltage regulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
