Abstract

Engineering Engineering, Electrical & Electronic Science & Technology Technology
This work considers modern electric power grids, i.e. cyber-physical power systems, as networked, multi-converter power systems. From such a viewpoint, this paper presents a software and hardware platform for the integrated study of both the underlying communication network and the interaction of multiple, power converters within a single electric power microgrid. In particular, a microgrid energy management system was established that collects and provides data to a network simulator. The resulting platform allows for delays in both power control actuation and power data communication to be jointly studied. The inclusion of hardware resulted in data collection that intrinsically includes uncertainty. Subsequently, this platform can be used in both deterministic and stochastic analysis and control studies of cyber-physical power systems.
