Islanded microgrids must be self-sufficient in terms of frequency and voltage control due to their islanded operation. A control strategy for frequency regulation by combining the operation of a wind generator, a diesel generator, a battery energy storage system and a dump load in a microgrid is proposed in this paper. In the proposed strategy, the control task is partitioned into two subtasks: 1) choosing the appropriate element to be used for regulation, and 2) providing frequency regulation. A global controller chooses the element to operate. Then, the frequency regulation is provided by separate individual controllers. The proposed control strategy is tested on a microgrid with mixed types of generation and modeled on Simulink. By monitoring the power of individual elements and system frequency, it is shown that the proposed control strategy operates efficiently. The proposed strategy facilitates the integration of renewable energy sources and enhances frequency regulation.
