A Spectral Clustering Based Distributed Control of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) Integrated Power Distribution System

摘要

Motivated by the government's clean energy targets, the penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER) is increasing. These DERs interconnections bring the added generation and storage capacity at the distribution level. Also, with the increasing implementation of smart inverters and Advanced Distribution Management Systems (ADMS), the flexibility of the DERs can be leveraged to solve the distribution grid issues like over abnormal voltages, intermittencies, and thermal overloads. The proposed work focuses on the development of a robust distributed control architecture to control and optimally manage the load and PV variations using energy storage by creating the virtual clusters of the distribution grid.
