Abstract

This paper describes operational analysis results of the DC micro-grid using detailed model of distributed generation. Detailed model of wind power generation, photovoltaic generation, fuel cells generation was implemented with the user-defined model of PSCAD/EMTDC software that is coded with C-language. The operation analysis was carried out using PSCAD/EMTDC software, in which the power circuit is implemented by built-in model and the controller is modeled by user-defined model that is also coded with C-language. Various simulation results confirm that the DC micro-grid can operate without any problem in both the grid-tied mode and the islanded mode. The operational analysis result confirms that the DC micro-grid make it feasible to provide power to the load stably. And it can be utilized to develop an actual system design and building.
