This example shows the islanded operation of an inverter-based microgrid using the droop control technique and it is based on a recent example available in Matlab 2021b using specialized components and algorithms inside Specialized Power Systems libraries of Simscape Electrical.
The proposed strategy is validated by comparing it with the conventional fixed droop control method on the MATLAB Simulink platform. The variable droop control strategy outperforms the fixed droop method by addressing sudden voltage fluctuations in the DC bus, which occur due to the inherent load current dependency of the fixed droop approach.
This example shows islanded operation of a remote microgrid modeled in Simulink® using Simscape™ Electrical™ components. This example demonstrates the simplest grid-forming controller with droop control. A remote microgrid is often used to serve electric loads in locations without a connection to the main grid.
The model can include the different components of the microgrid, such as generators, energy storage systems, and load demand, as well as the droop control algorithm. The simulation can be used to study the performance of the microgrid under different operating conditions and to evaluate the effectiveness of the droop control method.
