Abstract
This paper proposes the two-stage optimization of superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) integrated into hybrid wind/photovoltaic (PV) generators considering the state of charge (SOC) control for stabilizing voltage and power fluctuations. The first stage aims to achieve the minimal coil inductance of SMES that guarantees the stored energy for system stabilization. In the second stage, the control parameters of SMES are optimized to keep the SOC at the desired level. As a result, the minimum coil inductance with sufficient stored energy of SMES for stabilizing system and regulating SOC at the target value can be obtained for entire period of operation. Study results in the distribution system with various loads ensure that the hybrid wind/PV with optimized internal SMES yields superior stabilizing performance in comparison with the SMES externally installed at the wind/PV terminal.
