Abstract

The microgrid is some part of the electric grid that can disconnect and operate autonomously, therefore it is becoming a broadly discussed theme in the ecosystem of the distribution domain. Moreover, distributed generation and distributed storage may function cooperatively towards balancing energy supply and demand, as well as managing system stability and power quality. In this context, the vastly used droop control method is a decentralized solution for managing these variables. This paper explores a scenario where various types of converters designed by several suppliers and for different purposes are used for power sharing applying the droop method in an islanded microgrid.
