Abstract

In response to the uncertainty of renewable energy output and the fluctuation of load, this paper proposes a hybrid energy storage management strategy based on the State of Charge (SOC) to smooth power fluctuations and thereby improve the power quality of photovoltaic energy storage DC microgrids. Firstly, a hybrid algorithm for power tracking control is formed by incorporating the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm into the variable step-size Incremental Conductance (INC) method, thereby optimizing the maximum power point tracking control system of the photovoltaic system. Then, a first-order filter is employed for the initial allocation of demand power. Taking the SOC of supercapacitors and energy storage batteries as a reference, a secondary power allocation energy management strategy based on rule-based control is proposed to ensure the service life and application safety of the hybrid energy storage system. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted in MATLAB/Simulink 23.2 (R2023b). The results indicate that the proposed energy management strategy can maintain the SOC of the hybrid energy storage system at a reasonable level and effectively smooth DC bus voltage fluctuations.
