Data-Driven Adaptive Control for Distributed Energy Resources

This paper presents a new control method for power electronic interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) in DC grids. The proposed control method relies on a data-driven identification approach that is used in an adaptive control framework and does not require accurate models of the converters or off-line training for control synthesis. In this context, the proposed control method is able to guarantee a good performance and bus voltage stability without prior knowledge of the uncertainties. These uncertainties include measurement noise and network-induced phenomena from interactions with neighboring nodes, such as system reconfigurations resulting from converters connection/disconnection.
