Zusammenfassung
With growing power demand and increasing concern
about the use of fossil fuels in conventional power plant in
future, the renewable energy power generation is gaining
greater importance across the globe in effectively meeting
the growing power demand. In the renewable power
generation, the microgrid integrates distributed generation
(DGs) of capacity ranging from few KW to MW at the load
sites, instead of traditional generator units that are located
far away from loads where the natural resources are available.
The present paper focus on super- capacitor as a new energy
storage device and that appears to be one of the best choices
for the microgrid. The super capacitor energy storage in the
microgrid not only combines the feature of best energy storage
element but can also improve the power quality of microgrid;
balances the micro sources output and plays an important
role on the economic performance of microgrid. It can be
combined as a battery -super capacitor hybrid storage that
shows longer run time and higher power capability compared
to a battery alone under load condition. The characteristics
and performance of super capacitor energy storage system
and its application in the microgrid to promote technological
progresses and achieve greater economic benefits is focused.
