Abstract

Photovoltaics are one of the most important renewable energy sources to meet the increasing demand for energy. This led to the emergence of Microgrid s, which revealed a number of problems, the most important of which is managing and monitoring their operation, this research contributes mainly by using a maximum power tracking algorithm Which depends on artificial neurons and integrating it with a proposed algorithm for energy management in Standalone DC Microgrid, in order to control the distribution of power and maintain the DC bus voltage level.  Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm based on ANN+PID is used. Where ANN tracks the maximum power point by estimating the reference voltage using real-time data such as temperature and solar radiation. The PI controller reduces the error between the measured voltage and the reference voltage and makes the necessary adjustments in order to control the boost converter connected to the photovoltaic panels. While the process of controlling the DC bus voltage level is done by controlling the battery charging and discharging process through the power management algorithm and controlling the Bidirectional converter switches according to the battery’s state of charge. The simulation results obtained by used MATLAB Simulink are shown that the used MPPT algorithm achieved the maximum power with the least amount of fluctuation, the method's efficiency was 99.92%, and its accuracy was 99.85%, as well as the success of the power management algorithm controlling the battery charging/discharging process and maintaining the DC voltage level at the specified value in different operating scenarios.
