Energy storage system (ESS) is generally used to manage the intermittency of the renewable energy sources (RESs). The proper control strategy is needed to effectively maintain the power balance between the RESs, load demand and ESS. The conventional control strategy for the hybrid energy storage system (HESS) uses the high/low pass filter (HPF/LPF) method for system net power decomposition and the ESS power dispatch. In this paper, a new joint control strategy is proposed for photovoltaic (PV) based DC grid system, with battery and supercapacitor (SC) as a HESS. The new joint control strategy utilizes the uncompensated power from the battery system to increase the performance of the overall HESS. The advantages of the proposed control strategy over the conventional control strategy are faster DC link voltage restoration and effective power sharing between the battery and the SC. The detailed stability analysis of the proposed control strategy is also presented. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy over the conventional control strategy is validated with the short-term and long-term experimental studies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
