a method of microgrid connecting and off-grid smooth control is proposed based on self-identification for running mode. Collecting the real-time characteristics of microgrid
this method can identify the current running mode and switch the microgrid smoothly between the connecting and off-grid mode by using the extensible markup language (XML) file
the logical expressions of microgrid for its running mode
and can quickly control the exchanged power of tie-lines by generic object oriented substation event (GOOSE). The method can adjust its control strategy automatically
increase its reliability
and decrease its impact on microgrid. So far
the method has successfully been used in the Luxi Island microgrid project supported by National “863 Program”. It has a certain practical value. This works is supported by National Key Technologies R&D Program (No. 2012BAA15G00).
