Abstract

In this paper, a holistic small-signal model of hybrid AC and DC microgrids is developed, including AC subsection, DC subsection, and interface inverters between AC and DC buses. Based on the derived complete small-signal model, a region-based stability analysis approach is proposed and developed. Meanwhile, to obtain the steady-state operating points used in the regionbased stability analysis, practical and effective power flow calculation is conducted for droop-controlled hybrid AC and DC microgrids. Rather than following a conventional point-by-point stability evaluation procedure, the stability region implemented in this work is derived based on the selected cross-domain parameters from either control systems or main power circuits. Furthermore, an artificial intelligence (AI) assisted Kernel Ridge Regression (KRR) algorithm is implemented to derive the stability boundary with enhanced computational efficiency. Simulation tests are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
