Networked control of Distributed Energy Resources: Application to solid oxide fuel cells

Abstract: I. INTRODUCTION Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) are a suite of onsite, grid-connected or stand-alone technology systems that can be integrated into residential, commercial, or institutional buildings and/or industrial facilities. These energy systems include distributed generation, renewable energy sources, and hybrid generation technologies; energy storage; thermally activated technologies that use recoverable heat for cooling, heating, or power; transmission and delivery mechanisms; control and communica… Show more

“…To illustrate the design and implementation of the robust fault-tolerant control system to be presented in this work, we consider a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) plant as an example (see the plant model in [10]). Fuel cells are important distributed resources due to their high efficiency, low levels of environmental pollution, and flexible modular designs that match versatile demands of customers.…”

“…However, a distributed power network with a large number of small generators requires far more sophisticated monitoring and control systems than a radial grid focused on a few big plants. This has motivated significant research work over the past decade on the development and implementation of control strategies for various kinds of distributed energy generation systems (e.g., see [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11] for some results and references in this area).…”

“…Note, however, that unlike the case of simultaneous DER transmissions (where no scheduling takes place) which was investigated in Sun et al (2009), not all models within the supervisor are updated (and hence not all estimation errors are reset to zero) at each transmission time. Instead, only the model of the transmitting DER is updated using the measurements provided by its sensor suite.…”

“…While the focus of these studies has been mainly on demonstrating the feasibility of the developed control algorithms, the explicit characterization and management of communication constraints in the formulation and solution of the DER control problem have not yet been addressed. An effort to address this problem was initiated in Sun et al (2009) where a model-based networked control approach was developed for a DER that communicates with the central controller over a bandwidthconstrained communication network that is shared by several other DERs. The minimum allowable communication frequency was characterized for the case when all DER sensor suites communicate their measurements over the network concurrently and are given simultaneous access to the network.…”
