Hardware-In-the-Loop Benchmarking Setup for Phasor Based Control Validation

Phasor Based Control is a novel approach to controlling Distributed Energy Resources that aims at relieving various constraints that arise in the distribution grid. It is a two-layer control system with a supervisory control that coordinates distributed controllers to reach voltage phasor targets. The distributed controllers use local synchrophasor measurements and operate as feedback controllers. This control method is currently under development with several algorithms being under consideration for both the central and distributed components. In this report, we present the experimental setup that was prepared to prototype a hardware implementation and validate the control method in Hardware-In-the-Loop.

Phasor Based Control with the Distributed, Extensible Grid Control Platform

This paper describes how to implement Phasor Based Control (PBC) using the Distributed, Extensible Grid Control (DEGC) Platform. PBC is a novel method for controlling distributed energy resources (DER) that coordinates a centralized optimization with distributed feedback controllers to enforce voltage phasor targets. DEGC is an open source software and communication platform designed for general DER control. We deployed PBC at Lawrence Berkeley Lab's FLEXLAB test site, conducting multiple hardware-in-the-loop test runs. Here, we describe how DEGC was used to implement PBC on hardware, and results demonstrating successful deployment.
