Summary: | In this article, a modified decentralized finite control set model predictive control (FCS-MPC) scheme for the distributed energy resources (DERs) is proposed to improve the power management quality of the prosumers integrated microgrids under the condition of harmonic and unbalance loads. The proposed control strategy for the microgrids mainly consists of the power droop controller, the model predictive controller delay compensation, feedback correction and the unbalance compensation mechanism. The feedback correction method is used to correct the delay compensation, which effectively reduces the average switching frequency (ASF) and voltage total harmonic distortion (THD). By sharing the negative sequence reactive power of the microgrid, power distribution between the prosumers' DERs is improved. The DERs in the prosumers can be integrated without any communication wire. The transient response and robustness to parameter changes are far superior to hierarchical cascaded control. Moreover, the proposed control strategy can better suppress harmonic and reduce and share fundamental negative sequence reactive power under microgrid unbalance and nonlinear load conditions. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed FCS-MPC control strategy is validated by time-domain simulation results and real-time tests with RT-Lab under the condition of unbalanced and nonlinear loads in the microgrids.
