Abstract :
This paper presents a hardware solution for embedding multi-agent controls of PEBB based power electronics systems. The architecture of the proposed solution is presented here together with the experimental results of Hardware in the Loop testing of a prototype. Validation of both power and communication characteristics has been addressed. The test case consists of the voltage control of a radial distribution feeder with three distributed energy resources.
