Abstract

This research aims to propose a power management strategy (PMS) based on the flatness control method for a stand-alone DC microgrid system. The goal of the proposed strategy is to create an efficient PMS using nonlinear flatness theory in order to provide a constant DC bus voltage and the best possible power-sharing mechanism between the battery and the PV array. A maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique based on an artificial neural network (ANN) to optimize the PV's power. Moreover, the suggested PMS technique was tested in a simulation environment based on MATLABĀ®/Simulink. The obtained results demonstrate that the proposed PMS method can stabilize the bus voltage under variations in load or solar radiation. Additionally, the PMS method reduced bus voltage spikes and guaranteed good power quality, which extended the battery's lifespan and increased its efficiency. Also, the proposed approach outperforms the standard PI approach in terms of tracking efficiency and has a lower rate of overshoot in the bus voltage under different load scenarios. Therefore, the method is effective when compared with the classical PI approach. The overshoot in the PI method is 58 V, while the overshoot in the DC voltage is 5 V in the proposed method. The tracking speed of the proposed system is very low, and the slower speed was observed in the classical method, and the rise time of PI was 7.9ms, while the proposed method equals 2.2ms.
