全港首個微網控制實驗室及 CHASE 理想調度追蹤算法的實際應用

First-of-its-kind Laboratory Microgrid Platform and CHASE Algorithm Implementation

香港理工大學電機工程系教授許昭教授之研究團隊致力於研究電力的高效應用。團隊構建的智能微電網實驗室集光伏、儲能及電能優化調配為一體，是全港首個微網控制實驗平台，總容量達 4 kw（外觀見圖一，網絡架構見圖二）。團隊以LabVIEW軟件開發了智能實時監控系統。同時，作為驗證多種調度及控制策略的在線實驗平台，目前控制週期已短至5秒；其中，中大陳名華教授團隊開發的CHASE在線調度演算法已在此平台得到了成功驗證。

The research crew of Prof. Zhao Xu, Professor, Department of Electrical Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University has been aspiring excellence in the study of efficient utilization of electricity. Their microgrid experimental laboratory platform - a holistic integration comprising photovoltaics, energy storage and optimization dispatch components - is the first-of-its-kind in Hong Kong, with total capacity of 4 kw (See Fig. 1 for the laboratory outlook and Fig. 2 for the network architecture). The team established the smart real-time monitoring system using the software LabVIEW. At the same time, it acts as the implementation verifying platform for various online experimental dispatch and control strategies, with control cycle as rapid as 5 seconds. Here, the CHASE online energy generation scheduling algorithm developed by Prof. Minghua Chen from CUHK was successfully verified.
