AbstractThis paper proposes a new DC micro-grid system, which fully utilizes the renewable energy and electric vehicle for smart energy delivery. The proposed DC grid incorporates the AC supply module, standby energy module, renewable energy module, and storage energy module together, to execute the energy distribution. Hence, this grid system can offer a high quality power for the three types of loads, namely 110V AC single-phase output, 48V DC output, and 100V DC output. The control strategy of the grid system for performing smart energy delivery will be discussed in the full paper. The simulation results will be also given to verify the four operation modes of the grid system.
