Power Management in Hybrid Microgrids Using Fuzzy Logic

Haritha C, Remya K V

Abstract: Batteries installed in Photovoltaic Systems for extensive storage of energy has been demanded for a better administration of the same in terms of equilibrium of voltages across the bus and to govern the current of power further malleably. Battery utilized in PV scheme of working will alleviate the power vacillations owed to the physiognomies of PV panels and solar irradiance. This paper makes use of a fuzzy logic controller in the MPPT section accompanied by the inclusive Control and Power Management System (CAPMS) reaching for an ultimate outcome of increase in VDC as well as compliantly monitoring approach for voltage and current, both AC and DC, along with involuntary balancing of power transfer within the system whether it is on island-mode or grid-mode.
