摘要
This article describes a direct current (DC) isolated network that is infed with distributed generation from renewable sources and cogeneration units. The sources are connected to the network via DC/DC converters to keep the voltage within a defined range and to ensure the required power flow. The consumption is directly connected to the DC network, without any DC/DC converter. The storage is located at a single point in the network. A simulation analysis based on a DC-network model shows that it is possible to operate a DC network with standard elements used for the generation side as well as for the consumption side. The key elements are the DC/DC converters, which control the voltage of the network and optimize the operation of the sources. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
