“…The controller determines the principle of operation of the ES and generates the firing pulses ( S PWM ) to the switches of the converter. In general, there are five ES versions reported in the literature, four of them correspond to the AC versions (ES‐1 to ES‐4), and the other one is the DC version (DCES) [25, 26]. Their differences rely on the changes in the control law, the kind of DC power source, the topology of the converter, or the type of non‐critical load.…”

“…The ES showed in Fig. 1(c) has recently been utilized in distribution systems for demand-side management [19], [22], [23]. ES is a voltage compensator connected in series with the a non-critical load to regulate the ac bus voltage while reshaping the load demand (load shedding).…”

Analysis of Smart Loads in Nanogrids

Low-inertia power generation units make nanogrids vulnerable to the voltage and power fluctuations caused by pulse loads and abnormal grid conditions. The conversion of critical loads to smart loads is a potential solution for improving the stability and power quality in nanogrids. This paper investigates the effects of utilizing smart loads on the performance of nanogrids. A smart load can compensate for sudden deviations between supply and demand and therefore can mitigate voltage and power oscillations in lowinertia nanogrids. The conversion of critical loads to smart loads can reduce the stress on the energy storage units and minimize the required battery banks in nanogrids. In this paper, several case studies are considered to verify the stability and power quality improvement of nanogrids when some loads are converted to smart loads.
