AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the fault crossing period, all loads connected to the microgrid are interrupted in power and cannot meet the fault crossing requirements of the utility grid for inverter-based generators.

Method used

By a method for controlling a microgrid, the microgrid includes a circuit breaker, a distributed energy resource, a switching device and a microgrid controller, the method includes maintaining the switching device and the circuit breaker closed, measuring the voltage in the microgrid, if a voltage loss or a fault is detected, the switching device is turned on, the critical load is supplied by the battery energy storage system, and the circuit breaker remains closed during the fault traversal period.

Benefits of technology

Fast isolation of critical loads during grid interference is achieved while distributed energy resources remain connected to the utility grid until fault traversal is completed, ensuring the stability and reliability of the microgrid.

Abstract

The present application relates to a method for controlling a microgrid (10), comprising the steps of: maintaining a switching device (60) connecting two busbars (30, 40) of the microgrid (10) and a circuit breaker (20) connecting the microgrid (10) to a utility grid (100) closed, the microgrid (10) operating in a grid connected mode; measuring (202) a voltage present in the microgrid (10); determining (205) whether the measured voltage corresponds to a voltage loss or fault in the microgrid (10); and opening (210) the switching device (60) if a voltage loss or fault is detected in the microgrid (10), where the critical load is supplied by the battery energy storage system (50) and the circuit breaker (20) remains closed during at least a fault ride-through period (215).
