“…The instruments have been designed to handle very small-time intervals effectively, enabling real-time modelling of inverter performance across a wide range of frequencies. Mitigated risks associated with microgrid installation can be achieved by establishing a connection between the virtual network and operational control hardware and carefully adjusting its operation [39].…”

“…The difficulty faced by rural areas in connecting to the utility grid is primarily attributed to several factors, including the distances from existing transmission and distribution (T&D) infrastructures, the presence of steep topography, low population density, and low load demand. These factors collectively contribute to both the economies of scale and technological obstacles that hinder the integration of rural areas into the utility grid [38], [39]. Consequently, individuals worldwide are increasingly migrating from rural areas to urban centers, resulting in a decline in general living conditions and a deceleration in urbanization.…”

This study examines the variation in sensitivity of a microgrid system comprised of photovoltaics, wind turbines, diesel engines, and batteries. The primary objective is to increase our knowledge of renewable energy resources (RERs) and their technical and economic factors in the context of the conceptual design of a microgrid system. The investigation employs Typhoon HIL software for simulation and testing, concentrating on hybrid PV/Wind/Diesel/Battery systems and devising a perturb & observe (P&O) maximum power point tracking (MPPT) strategy. Additionally, the study investigates the Optimal Power Controlling MPPT technique and the development and implementation of hybrid renewable energy resources (HRES). The Typhoon HIL system is utilized in the power, automotive, and aerospace industries, among others, to simulate and test control systems in real-time. This study presents a control strategy for a microgrid system that combines renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power with reserve power options such as diesel generators and batteries. The coordinated control technique is implemented by employing a centralized control method, effectively managing the flow of electricity from diverse distributed energy resources (DER) and ensuring the microgrid's stability. The findings indicated that the coordinated control method and dynamic models could be utilized to design and optimize microgrid systems. Future research can concentrate on refining the accuracy of the models and verifying the proposed coordinated control method in microgrid systems that operate in the real world.

In recent years, there has been a proliferation of studies focusing on sustainable energy sources aimed at delivering reliable power with reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Among these endeavors, electrification of urban areas through incorporation of renewable energy sources (RESs) stands out as a pivotal application of RES. Increasingly, the integration of RESs like PV and wind into the power grid is being pursued as an alternative to traditional centralized power stations, offering a means to ensure continuous power supply during peak demand periods while simultaneously managing unit costs, thereby providing a systematic and readily accessible power supply to consumers. This paper presents a comprehensive examination of hybrid wind and PV with focus on achieving consistent DC bus-bar voltage through integration with microcontroller system via buck-boost converter. Additionally, hybrid system's output voltage is tailored to accommodate necessary battery connections. However, given influence of environmental variables like fluctuations in solar irradiation and wind velocity on power output of PV and wind seamless integration of these sources becomes paramount. To address this challenge MATLAB model is developed to simulate grid integration of hybrid wind and PV, enabling a detailed analysis of integrated grid's performance. Simulation results are then proposed with those obtained from conventional fossil fuelbased power generation methods. In this research underscores importance of integrating RES into existing power grids and highlights efficacy of hybrid wind and PV in meeting this objective. Findings presented herein contribute to advancing discourse on sustainable energy solutions, offering valuable insights for policymakers, industry stakeholders, and researchers.

“…Thus, the PUC inverter can't generate voltage more than the maximum value of the two voltage sources. So, it doesn't get application in medium or high-power applications [20]- [23]. Due to recent advancement in solar panels and its economic cost, it becomes feasible to use number of PV panels as DC sources.…”

In this paper, a modified configuration of Single-Phase Seven-Level Packed U-Cell (PUC) Multilevel Inverter for solar photovoltaic system is presented & investigated for standalone operation. The Seven-Level MPUC Inverter comprises of six semiconductor switches & two DC links which generates seven voltage levels at the inverter output. The maximum amplitude of inverter output voltage is more than that of available maximum DC link value (i.e. sum of two DC link values). The voltage levels generated in the MPUC inverter is more with reduced number of components counts as compare to conventional multilevel inverter topologies like Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) and Neutral Point Clamped (NPC). The proposed inverter finds application in PV System where green power is derived from two PV panels with different power rating and voltage rating connected to DC links. Several design considerations viz. the RMS value of inverter output voltage, switching frequency & voltage rating of semiconductor switches are taken into consideration to prove the advantages of the MPUC inverter. The simulation results of the MPUC inverter shows the appropriate operation of multilevel inverter.
