Standalone DC microgrids (SDCMGs) are emerging as prominent solutions to remote customers. As these SDCMGs mainly depend on renewable energy sources to curb carbon emission, reliability of the system is lessened due to their intermittent nature. The battery could offer a solution to this problem as it is inherently enclosed by DC grid for power balancing, but the purpose may not be served completely due to high capital cost and maintenance. Thus, the diesel generator (DG) becomes a major alternative to overcome this issue because of low investment, high compatibility, and flexibility. However, DG inhibits with cranking delay, sluggish response and low fuel efficiency under frequent switching and variable loading scenarios. To suppress the issues, a new power management strategy (PMS) is developed to ensure proper coordination between different sources, storage devices and loads in SDCMG. In addition to this, an effective control scheme is also proposed to achieve seamless regulation of DC bus voltage even under extreme conditions. In this study, different SDCMG configuration is considered for testing and simulation of system is carried out in real‐time digital simulator to prove their viability. A scaled prototype is developed to validate simulation results and authenticate proposed PMS and control scheme.

“…The use of hybrid power system in vehicles eliminates the need of battery electrification as these systems are able to recover and restore the energy from several braking. The most important advantage of their usage in reduction of global CO2emissions has been turned to a very critical topic nowadays (Lohner and Evers, 2004).…”

“…The automotive industries are also very interested in this technology and currently are very involved in the use of supercapacitors for the hybrid electric vehicles. They have been used in many large scale application particularly transportation industry such as hybrid cars, autonomous rail-guided vehicles, support of substation voltage for trolleybuses, tramways, and subways (a proto-type being tested), busses and trains (Beale and Gerson, 2004, Zorpette, 2005, Lohner and Evers, 2004, Rufer et al, 2004, [On-line], 2008. These ultracapacitors due to their high power density can operate as supplementary power source to batteries in order to provide a burst of acceleration for the vehicles or can be used to absorb energy during regenerative breaking schemes.…”

In this paper a combination of the flatness based method and the Input/Output (I/O) linearization technique is presented to control a low power electrical hybrid system supplied by a fuel cell (FC) and a supercapacitor pack (SCP). This hybrid system feeds three independent loads through the DC/DC buck converters. The first method is used to manage the energy between FC, SCP and loads, while the second one is employed to control the buck converters. This leads to benefit advantages of the two methods: prediction of the system behavior even in the transient state and decoupling the control variables of the buck converters. The simulation results prove efficiency of the control strategy of the multi sources/multi loads electrical hybrid system.
