Abstract

In this paper, a novel energy management method that is based on a Multi-Agent System (MAS) is presented for hybrid Distributed Energy Sources (DES) in a microgrid. These DESs include Photovoltaic (PV), wind energy systems, and Fuel Cell (FC) in the Microgrid (MG). The MG is responsible for supplying both active and reactive powers, allowing it to serve variable linear and non-linear loads. The MAS that has been proposed and is based on a decentralized control structure offers control not only for the energy management of the Distributed Generation (DG) but also for the management of power flow between the MG and the power grid that is connected to the MG. This control is offered by the MAS. The main objective of the control strategy is to manage the amount of energy that is transferred between the power grid and the MG concerning the supply conditions of the required internal energy via DES, which will ultimately result in a reduction in the dependence on the MG on the grid. For current harmonic compensation, a Static Compensator (STATCOM) with a Fuzzy Logic (FL) based Instantaneous Reactive Power control scheme is used. On the other hand, a discrete controller is utilized to manage the energy of the MG. The findings of the simulation and the experiments demonstrated that the implementation of the suggested Energy Management System (EMS) has good performance as a novel energy management solution for a hybrid distributed power generating system and harmonic compensation.
