Abstract

A novel optimal energy management system (EMS) using a nonlinear constrained multivariable function to optimize the operation of battery energy storages (BESs) used in a hybrid power plant with wind turbine (WT) and photovoltaic (PV) power plants is proposed in this work. The hybrid power plant uses a configuration based on a battery-stored impedance-based cascaded multilevel inverter to integrate renewable energy sources (PV power plants and WT) and BESs into the grid. The new optimal EMS seeks for satisfying the demanded power while dispatching power between BESs to optimize their efficiency. A grid-connected configuration is implemented to assess the efficiency of the suggested supervisory control under changes in renewable energy (changes in wind speed and irradiation), and in a varying active and reactive powers’ request. The BES efficiency obtained from the suggested EMS is set side by side to the BES efficiency got from a conventional EMS and a model predictive control (MPC), both working based on the state-of-charge (SOC) of the BES and balancing power EMS. The results from MATLAB simulation and the experimental results with the real-time OPAL-RT simulator (OP4510, OPAL-RT) and dSPACE MicroLabBox show the effectiveness of the suggested approach and the improvement in long-term BES efficiency.
