Abstract

This paper investigates an interaction problem that might be induced from various kinds of distributed generators installed in a MicroGrid. One of the most important features of MicroGrid is islanding operation. MicroGrid does not include large central generators and all distributed small generators have to share all loads existing in the MicroGrid. In this case, undesirable mutual oscillation problem might appear when MicroGrid goes into islanding mode. In this paper, MicroGrid itself and several types of distributed generator are modeled by using Matlab/Simulink. A typical case is simulated and examined by using the developed model.
