“…Using the SCT approach, it is possible to reduce the risks that some state of the system or function is not considered, in addition to obtaining an entity called the supervisor, who consistently implements the designed system. Preliminary results were reported in [17], where the inverter management issue was initially investigated. This paper provides the design details, algorithms, and an extended investigation considering both RTDE and experimental evaluation.…”

This work proposes an autonomous management system for distributed generation (DG) systems connected to the AC grid, using supervisory control theory (SCT). SCT is used to deal with discrete asynchronous events that modify the properties and operational conditions of these systems. The proposed management layer allows the smart inverters to interact with smart grid managers (SGMs), while guaranteeing operation compliance with the IEEE Standards. The implemented supervisor for the management layer is an automaton that performs the smart inverter manager (SIM) functions in the photovoltaic systems in discrete events. A DSP real-time verification was performed with Typhoon HIL 602+ to demonstrate the smart inverter’s operating dynamics connected to the grid. The results showed the fast response and robust operation of the smart inverter manager to the commands from the smart grid manager.
