Abstract

Renewable energy is currently the main direction of development of electric power. Because of its own characteristics, the reliability of renewable energy generation is low. Renewable energy generation system needs lots of energy conversion devices which are made of power electronic devices. Too much power electronic components can damage power quality in microgrid. High Frequency AC (HFAC) microgrid is an effective way to solve the problems of renewable energy generation system. Transmitting electricity by means of HFAC is a novel idea in microgrid. Although the HFAC will cause more loss of power, it can improve the power quality in microgrid. HFAC can also reduce the impact of fluctuations of renewable energy in microgrid. This paper mainly simulates the HFAC with Matlab/Simulink and analyzes the feasibility of HFAC in microgrid.
