description

The growing demand for electrical power and the interruption of the power supply has paved the way for the realization of renewable based energy generation. This paper presents the control and power management of a hybrid microgrid system that comprises Photovoltaic (PV) array, battery, and local AC load, connected to the utility grid. This work focuses on the compensation of PV power reduction due to partial shading using bidirectional half bridge converter with battery storage. This system considers fulfilling the local load demand through PV production and, then, to manage the power among the battery and grid. In the proposed system, the considered power conditioning devices area boost converter, 3 phase full-bridge inverter, and bi-directional converter. The results are obtained from the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment.
