Abstract

The growing complexity of microgrid operations, driven by the integration of renewable energy sources and distributed generation, has heightened the need for more advanced islanding detection methods. Traditional techniques, such as passive and active methods, often struggle with accuracy in these dynamic environments. Passive methods can result in high false detection rates as they rely on system parameters like voltage and frequency, which are sensitive to fluctuations. Active methods, while generally more accurate, can introduce disturbances into the system and are often less effective in low-power scenarios. These limitations pose significant challenges to maintaining the stability and integrity of microgrids, underscoring the need for innovative approaches. To address these challenges, this paper presents a novel approach that combines deep learning with fuzzy logic for adaptive control in microgrids. Deep learning facilitates precise real-time data analysis, enabling the system to accurately detect islanding events as they occur. Meanwhile, fuzzy logic provides adaptable decision-making, allowing the system to respond effectively to changing conditions. This integration significantly enhances detection accuracy and reduces error rates compared to traditional techniques, ensuring reliable performance throughout the day. By offering a more robust and flexible solution, the proposed method not only improves fault detection but also enhances overall system stability, making it a valuable contribution to microgrid management. This approach addresses the critical need for more effective islanding detection in increasingly complex microgrid environments, paving the way for more resilient and reliable energy systems.
