Power management in microgrid through PV system / Ameerul A. J. Jeman, Naeem M. S. Hannoon and Sharon S. Gerang

This paper presents a performance comparison of
real and reactive power flow in microgrid through PV system
using both controller which are Fuzzy logic based and
Conventional controller. In general, an electrical power
management is an electronic system that provides detail
information about the power flow in a distribution generation
system or power substation. The PV system has two major
problems; namely, low conversion efficiency of electric power
generation and the amount electric power generated by solar
array changes continuously. Therefore, the objective of this paper
is to analyse the controller performance of conventional controller
and the proposed one. The early work in fuzzy control was
motivated by a desire to directly express the control actions of an
experienced human operator in the controller and to obtain
smooth interpolation between discrete controller outputs.
Conventional controllers are simple and easy to understand but it
is not very efficient due to presence of non-linearity in the system
while fuzzy controllers have proper actions like human control
actions, needs less data storage and more robust. The PV system
will be simulated by using MATLAB/Simulink respectively. The
results of the controller performance will be presented and
compared with similar cases. Based on the results that are going
to be obtained, a better performance in the fuzzy controller than
the conventional controller is expected.
