| Abstract | Due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources, the implementation of energy storage systems (ESSs) is crucial for the reliable operation of microgrids. This paper proposes a peer-to-peer distributed secondary control scheme for accurate voltage restoration of distributed ESS units in a DC microgrid. The presented control framework only requires local and neighboring information to function. Besides, the ESSs communicate with each other through a sparse network in a discrete fashion compared to existing approaches based on continuous data exchange. This feature ensures reliability, expandability, and flexibility of the proposed strategy for a more practical realization of distributed control paradigm. A simulation case study is presented using MATLAB/Simulink to illustrate the performance and effectiveness of the proposed control strategy. |
