Simulation of Microgrid with energy management system

Day by day the electricity demand is increasing exponentially. To fulfill this increasing demand of electricity more and more utilization of non-conventional energy sources are required as conventional sources are depleting. The best way to utilize the different renewable energy sources (RES) together is by using application of Microgrid. This paper illustrates the simple model of DC Microgrid with energy management system (EMS) which schedules the generation and load. The simulation model is developed in MATLAB/Simulink software containing photovoltaic array, wind turbine generator system (PMDC generator), battery storage system, grid and energy management controller. The simulation results are presented with variable load and variable generation conditions.
