Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new decentralized control scheme for Microgrid (MG) clusters, given by the interconnection of atomic dc MGs, each composed by grid-forming and grid-feeding converters. In particular, we develop a new Plug-and-Play (PnP) voltage/current controller for each MG in order to achieve simultaneous voltage support and current feeding function with local references. The coefficients of each stabilizing controller are characterized by explicit inequalities, which are related only to local electrical parameters of the MG. With the proposed controller, each MG can plug-in/out of the clusters seamlessly irrespectively of the power line parameters and models of other MGs. A profound proof of closed-loop stability of MG clusters is provided. Moreover, theoretical results are validated by hardware-in-loop (HiL.) tests.
