Design of Pv in microgrid as energy source and control method using MATLAB/SIMULINK

Microgrid in power system has drawn attention widely for the major benefits in recent years. It is the most economical alternative to conventional energy system which uses Renewable Energy (RE) resources. RE sources ensure pollution free and clean environment by emitting zero CO2. In this paper, a microgrid system using solar photovoltaics (PV) as the Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and a controlling method for managing the components of microgrid are designed using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results show that microgrid system is able to become as an alternative energy to replace the fossil fuel based energy system. Also by integrating an effective controller that able to manage the loads and the resources the system is more stable and reliable
