AbstractThe future of the power system is definitely depending on the micro grid (MG) system which includes the Distribution Generators utilizing the Renewable energy Resources (RERs) and Storage. In this paper, an H∞ VF control strategy is presented for a parallel islanded AC microgrid system. The control strategy restored desired results accurately by removing errors of voltage and frequency (V&F) at a nominal value without using the secondary controller in addition to improving the active power and reactive power accuracy by using the proposed robust droop control. The proposed control scheme has been tested through MATLAB/Simulink under different load conditions. The comparison proves the effectiveness of the proposed controller which improves the desire results in frequency and voltage perspective. The proposed controller is reliable and stable than a conventional and secondary controller.Paper ID: 12A2P
