Source-Storage-Load Coordinated Master-Slave Control Strategy for Islanded Microgrid Considering Load Disturbance and Communication Interruption

When there is a sudden load disturbance in an islanded microgrid, the peer-to-peer control model requires the energy resource to maintain a margin of generation, resulting in a relatively limited regulation range, that is, voltage/frequency sometimes requires additional control to maintain stability. A "source-storage-load" coordinated master-slave control strategy is proposed in this study to address the aforementioned issues. The system voltage and frequency will be stable as long as the output frequency and voltage of the master resource are stable. Furthermore, it can fully utilize the power supply capacity of resources to support the supply-demand balance. The following tasks are included in the proposed strategy: 1) to improve the operational security in the face of load disruption, a source-storage-load coordinated control method based on the "ramping speed" ratio is proposed, which can quickly restore the balance of supply and demand; 2) to improve the communication reliability in the face of interruption, a channel planning method is proposed, which can address the communication interruption problem by constructing an internal network among source-storage-load; and 3) to improve the mode switching stability of resources subjected to external disturbance, the external disturbance suppression and stability analysis involved in the regulation process are completed using sliding-mode control and small signal model methods. Related case studies are carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategies.
