Enhanced control strategies for a hybrid battery/photovoltaic system using FGS-PID in grid-connected mode

摘要

This paper suggests improved control strategies using Fuzzy Gain Scheduling of Proportional-Integral-Derivative (FGS-PID) controller for a hybrid Photovoltaic (PV) and Battery Energy Storage (BES) system under different weather conditions. The proposed scheme is implemented using a two-level control system structure, combining the benefits of the PID as well as the fuzzy logic controller (FLC) for maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Ziegler-Nichols tuning method is also employed to select the initial values of PID gains. Within the period of steady-states and transients, FGS-PID adopts the gains to ensure the stability of the control scheme. It also damps out transient fluctuations and reduces settling time. Also, BES could be employed to provide a stable and reliable power from the output of PV sources to loads. It can enhance the performance of the entire power system during the grid-connected mode. The simulation results under Matlab/Simulink show that the suggested control strategies are robustness, fast transient response and proper steady-state performance in the grid-connected mode in comparison other presented methods.
