Supervisory Control for Power Management of an Islanded AC Microgrid Using a Frequency Signalling-Based Fuzzy Logic Controller

In islanded ac microgrids consisting of renewable energy sources (RES), battery-based energy storage system (BESS), and loads, the BESS balances the difference between the RES power and loads by delivering/absorbing that difference. However, the state of charge and charging/discharging power of the battery should be kept within their design limits regardless of variations in the load demand or the intermittent power of the RES. In this paper, a...
