Research Abstract

This study investigated various ways of designing and operating distributed generators (DGs), and microgrids, which consist of several DGs in order to find more effective ways to utilize renewable energy. Then, the level of electric power from renewable energy sources tend to fluctuate with meteorological changes. To solve these problems, we paid attention to the constitution of Parallel Processing UPS (P.P. UPS). We then developed a new power supply system that uses the following P.P.UPS components: an AC-switch, a PWM-converter (bi-directional inverter), and a valve-regulated lead-acid (VRLA) storage batteries. Our system can be used to not only maintain a balance of supply and demand, but to also continue to supply AC/DC power during disturbance to the utility grid.
