Abstract

Modular multilevel converters (MMC) play a dominant role in integrating remotely located renewable energy resources (RER) over the high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission network. The fault ride-through capabilities of the MMC-HVDC network during low-voltage faults and the power fluctuation due to RER intermittency are the major obstacles to the effective integration of renewable energy. In response, this article proposes a local voltage-based combined battery energy control scheme for a PV-wind-battery connected MMC-HVDC system to regulate the HVDC-link voltage during low-voltage faults at the point of common coupling of alternating current grids and to reduce the intermittent RER power fluctuation. The proposed technique removes the dynamic braking resistor from the HVDC-link and smoothly integrates the RER without active power reduction of renewable energy under low-voltage faults. Symmetrical and unsymmetrical low-voltage faults have been conducted to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme for the battery in mitigating surplus energy in the HVDC-link. Additionally, wind speed, solar radiation, and temperature have been changed to confirm the improved performance of the battery energy management system. The complete systems have been simulated and tested in a real-time digital simulator (RTDS) and using dSPACE-based controller hardware in a loop setup.
