Résumé : |
Nowadays, the energy demand is continuously growing and the use of classical power plant like nuclear or fossil generation should decrease for environmental and safety reasons. Alternative solutions must come from renewable energies coupled with smart and decentralized generation. That’s why, Guillaume Van den Hove and I are exploring one possible solution : the microgrid applications. In the first part of the thesis, description of a microgrid, its operating mode, its components and its interests are explained. An economical study was also done to evaluate the investment payback time. Then, the power management implementation is described. How will the different elements of the microgrid interact together depending of inputs, outputs and constraints ? How make such a system robust and safe ? This could be achievable thanks to the code implemented into the PLC. Also, Human Machine Interface was developed. In the complementary thesis of Guillaume van den Hove, the design strategy for the components will be described. Finally, the theory has been put into practice by realizing a 16kVA microgrid system with a 24kWh battery system, photovoltaic panels and a generator requested by the company Sonck Consult for commercializing purposes. Different stress tests and constraints in relation with this example are described in the last part. |
