Abstract

A DC microgrid comprised of a random power source, a random impedance load, a fixed ballast and a stabilizer unit (lead acid battery + ultra-capacitor bank) was modeled and constructed. A fuzzy-logic control algorithm was implemented to demonstrate stabilization of a DC microgrid to a given tolerance while demonstrating improved management of the storage systems when compared against a tradition proportional-integral control algorithm.
