1 Project Overview
Scope
To develop a comprehensive Simulink
model that showcases a power grid
interconnected with at least two
microgrids, each having their own power
generation sources. Each microgrid
should be capable of operating
independently in both islanded mode and
grid-connected mode while maintaining
the voltage and frequency at the point of
common coupling (PCC) at 230V and
50Hz, respectively.

Objectives
Objectives
• Develop a droop control algorithm
integrated with H-infinity technique for
voltage and frequency regulation in an
islanded microgrid.
• Evaluate the performance and stability
of the applied control algorithm during
balanced as well as unbalanced loading
on the AC Bus.
• Perform comparative analysis of the
proposed algorithm with traditional
droop methods and analyze the impact
of H-Infinity technique in voltage and
frequency regulation.
