Abstract

The reduction of fossil energy and environmental concerns, accompanied by technical and economic reasons, gave rise to increase the interest in penetration of Distributed Generations (DG) which consists of renewable energy sources such as wind generator, Photo Voltaic (PV) generator and fuel cell. As the integration of DG, energy storage systems, e.g. battery, super capacitor and flywheel energy storage and novel loads such as heat pumps, electric vehicles, and the concept of the micro-grid was proposed for improving the utilization efficiency of renewable energy. In order to improve voltage profile and to reduce the switching frequency losses between Source and Load, DC bus voltage control method is proposed using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.
