Review of applications of fuzzy logic in multi-agent-based control system of AC-DC hybrid microgrid

Abstract

High penetration of renewable energies to smart grid technologies has lead the traditional electrical transmission and distribution network to undergo a significant evolution. Here, advanced control strategies are required to ensure the load balance in order to keep the voltage and frequency variation within an acceptable range. With the integration of dc energy sources and storages, another control constraint would be added due to the limitations in a storage system. Among recent developments in control techniques, fuzzy logic and multi agent systems have emerged due to its strong control action in an uncertain environment. Researchers have made satisfactory efforts in optimizing hybrid renewable energy sources using these technologies. This paper strives to highlight the approaches of controlling the energy storage systems, dc voltage, frequency, and ac voltage with the aid of the fuzzy logic and multi agent systems related controllers.
