V. CONCLUSION
The article studies some voltage quality problems in micro-
grid including voltage fluctuation, voltage sag and voltage
swell, bus voltage uplifted due to large capacity capacitor
switching and harmonic, and brings forward a new method
depended on rotating type DG and inverter type DG in Micro-
grid to mitigate voltage fluctuation and improve harmonic
voltage. Through simulation and analysis, the main
conclusions are as follows:
1) Rotating type DG can increase system short circuit
strength and improve fluctuation performance. Additional
control on rotating equipment is relatively ineffective at
further mitigating voltage fluctuation.
2) Most inverter type DG is based on constant current
control mode, its effect on mitigating voltage fluctuation is not
quite obvious. Inverter type DG has significant beneficial
impact on fluctuation if they have voltage regulation function.
3) Through appropriate control, the inverter type DG can
improve harmonic voltage performance.
