Abstract

Providing higher quality power to consumers through the existent microgrid is now a problem for the renewable energy source. Designing a droop controller for the microgrid is a necessity to construct a dependable and effective microgrid. In this paper, a P–F/Q–V droop method is used to connect several VSIs in parallel. Their parallels and differences are amply discussed in this study. A frequency droop control method and a virtual impedance approach are combined in the suggested method, which is coupled to two distributed generation (DG) local controllers and has each unit having a droop control and a voltage-current controller. An islanded system's load flexibility and microgrid reliability can both be enhanced by adding this controller. The microgrid was subjected to this idea without any real-time communication. Simulink/MATLAB was used to simulate this. The results obtained show that the microgrid (MG) model is effective in autonomous operation.
