【 摘 要 】

In an active distribution grid, renewable energy sources (RESs) such as photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage systems (e.g., superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES)) can be combined with consumers to compose a microgrid (MG). The high penetration of PV causes high fluctuations of tie-line power flow and highly affects power system operations. This can lead to several technical problems such as voltage fluctuations and excessive power losses. In this paper, a fuzzy logic control based SMES method (FSM) and an optimized fuzzy logic control based SMES method (OFSM) are proposed for minimizing the tie-line power flow. Consequently, the fluctuations and transmission power losses are decreased. In FSM, SMES is used with a robust fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for controlling the tie-line power flow. An optimization model is employed in OFSM to simultaneously optimize the input parameters of the FLC and the reactive power of the voltage source converter (VSC) of SMES. The objective function of minimizing the tie-line power flow is incorporated into the optimization model. Particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is utilized to solve the optimization problem while the constraints of the utility power grid, VSC, and SMES are considered. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed methods.
