The European ENIAC R&D project consortium DC Components and Grid (DCC+G) is developing suitable, highly efficient components and sub systems for 380 VDC grid to show the benefits of DC grid concept on test site in an office environment. The newly developed DC grid components and their integration into a generic system are presented in this paper. The targeted overall efficiency saving compared to AC grid is 5% and the energy conversion from PV (photo voltaic) is calculated to be 7% more cost effective compared to traditional PV installations. This paper also shows the realized DC grid prototypesupplying an office building of the Fraunhofer Institute in Erlangen, Germany, and describes general benefits of a DC grid system. The DC grid prototype consists of a DC lighting system, a DC low power supply for IT infrastructure, DC electric vehicle charger, a DC μCHP unit, DC photovoltaic MPPT units, a central rectifier and grid controller unit as well as a mixed AC/DC power monitoring unit. It is shown that less conversion losses and higher distribution efficiency can be achieved with a 380 VDC grid compared to conventional AC grids.

This paper presents a multicell Dual-Active Bridge (DAB) converter that can increase the reliability of the power supply in a dc microgrid. The main feature of the proposed interconnection scheme is that it can supply power to a load even if one of its converters is taken out of operation or fail. This is accomplished because each cell is composed by a number of DAB converters interconnected in parallel in both of its ports, in that manner, when one of its converters is driven not to process power or is subject to a failure the others share that power keeping the load supplied. Then, in order to achieve a high voltage gain with lower voltage stresses on the switches, the cells are interconnected in parallel in one of its ports (low-voltage bus) and in series in the other (high-voltage bus) implementing a solidstate transformer (SST).

It is a normal practice that the DC micro-grid is connected to AC main grid through Grid-connected Voltage Source Converter (G-VSC) for voltage support. Accurate control of DC micro-grid voltage is difficult for G-VSC under unbalanced grid condition as the fundamental positive-sequence component phase information cannot be accurately tracked. Based on analysis of the cause of double-frequency ripple when unbalance exists in main grid, a phase-locked loop (PLL) detection technique is proposed. Under the conditions of unsymmetrical system voltage, varying system frequency, single-phase system and distorted system voltage the proposed PLL can accurately detect the fundamental positive-sequence component of grid voltage thus accurate control of DC micro-grid voltage can be realized.

This paper proposes the use of a three phase power converter setup with suitable controller, for power flow management over a hybrid micro-grid (including AC and DC grids), without need to any permanent storage systems (batteries or fuel cells) on the DC bus to counteract their high cost, complexity of design and integration. Such proposed system is capable of serving low voltage residential and commercial loads, where there would be an availability of renewable energy sources and possible DC loads (heaters, LED lights, electronics, etc ...). Bidirectional power transmission is achieved between AC and DC buses through a three phase bi-directional converter whose primary objective is to maintain a constant DC bus voltage with respect to DC sources or loads change. A proportional integral controller is utilized to stabilize the reference DC bus voltage by varying the reference AC grid side current that is controlled by a hysteresis controller. Through MATLAB SIMULINK simulation and practical implementation, the proposed prototype setup was evaluated for different operation scenarios.

The increasing amount of distributed energy resources requires significant changes to today's power systems. Most of the distributed resources are dc inherently or have a dc link. Therefore, connecting them with a dc distribution system seems beneficial. This paper presents the opportunities and challenges of dc distribution systems, starting with the requirements of future power systems. It will be looked at how dc can fulfill them with meshed grid architectures, increased system availability and new market models. New protection strategies for large dc distribution systems and their open research questions are discussed.

Interconnecting power converters within a low voltage DC grid can be a challenging task since these devices are rarely tested under final operating conditions during their development process in conjunction with converters from different manufacturers, different kinds of loads and appropriate grid impedances. In the worst case, stationary oscillations might occur in the grid setup for which the actual reason is hard to determine and solving the problem will require time-consuming trial and error means. Therefore, theoretical knowledge about how power converters react on grid-side disturbances is crucial for a preliminary analysis of the static and dynamic performance of low-voltage DC grids before plugging the devices together. Based on these considerations general guidelines for the dimensioning of control loops and grid-side capacitors of power converters can be derived. The following outlines describe the fundamentals of power converter behavior when exposed to disturbances occurring on the output current, e. g. from load steps. Another focus lies on shaping grid-side impedances of converters to avoid stability issues. Furthermore, a method to measure the impedances of interest is thoroughly described. All obtained results are verified in a brief case study.

This paper applies a hierarchical control for a fast charging station (FCS) composed of paralleled PWM rectifier and dedicated paralleled multiple flywheel energy storage systems (FESSs), in order to mitigate peak power shock on grid caused by sudden connection of electrical vehicle (EV) chargers. Distributed DC-bus signaling (DBS) and method resistive virtual impedance are employed in the power coordination of grid and flywheel converters, and a centralized secondary controller generates DC voltage correction term to adjust the local voltage set point. The control system is able to realize the power balancing and improve DC voltage regulation with low reliance on digital communication technology. Algorithm has been developed in Matlab/Simulink and compiled to real-time simulation platform dSPACE 1006. Corresponding simulation results have been reported in order to verify the validity of proposed control strategy.

The number and variety of electric vehicles connected to grid continue to grow rapidly, which results in a heavy burden on grid. To solve this problem, the concept of V2G (Vehicle to Grid) that electric vehicles could act as a new power source for grid was proposed. With distributed renewable energy developing fast recent years, charging EVs is a good way to use it. The DC micro-grid program being conducted at the Xiamen University (China) consists of a 150kW peak photovoltaic system. A unique charging station has been proposed designed on the basis of the DC micro-grid, featuring three-way energy flow among the power grid, PV modules and electric vehicles. The paper proposes a charging station based on DC micro-grid which also can provide V2G service. The control strategy of converters is investigated. Finally, simulation based on MATLAB is built to validate the availability and effectiveness of the proposed system and control strategy.
