Abstract :
This study is an attempt to address the frequency and voltage regulation inside of an islanded microgrid. Central demand response along with an adaptive hill climbing methodology is applied to a small islanded microgrid powered by a diesel generator. All dynamic models are developed in MATLAB/Simulink®. Simulation results show that the proposed method has the potential to suppress the frequency variations and stabilize the voltage of the microgrid.
