Description
Summary:This paper provides a thorough examination of various techniques for sharing active power between multiple dispatchable generation sources distributed within an interconnected microgrid. Ideally, an interconnected microgrid should function as a consistent load or source. However, achieving this ideal operation requires compensating for natural load fluctuations and the intermittent power output from non-dispatchable energy sources within the microgrid through timely and adequate adjustments made by dispatchable generation. Numerous control and management systems have been documented in the existing literature to achieve optimal microgrid operation. This paper presents a concise comparison of most of the proposed systems published in the literature. The benefits and restrictions of the proposed methods are thoroughly evaluated under various possible operating scenarios.
