Final Year Project

Project Title

Comprehensive Protection Scheme for Renewable Energy Integrated Microgrids

Description

The objective of this project is to explore and analyze the existing power system and protection schemes for renewable energy integrated AC microgrids. While developing a comprehensive algorithm-based operation and control of the protection scheme for renewable integrated AC microgrid on MATLAB/Simulink. This algorithm will be able to identify different hazardous scenarios and take preventive measures to protect the load accordingly, thus protecting the microgrid against all faults.
