The hybrid AC-DC microgrid is an emerging technology that offers significant benefits such as (i) facilitating the integration of renewable energy sources and energy storage systems in distribution networks, (ii) providing reliable and high-quality electrical energy to the consumers, (iii) increasing the efficiency of the electrical power generation, transmission, and distribution, and (iv) providing an ideal infrastructure for Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations. However, the development of large-scale hybrid microgrids has been hindered by the lack of appropriate experience, knowledge, and technologies related to their control. The existing microgrid control strategies either require significant investment in high-bandwidth communication infrastructure or do not provide acceptable performance under all operating conditions. Besides, the need for coordinated control of the interconnected DC and AC systems in the hybrid microgrid introduces additional technical challenges. The proposed collaborative research and development project will aim to investigate the performances of the existing microgrid control strategies that can be applied to the hybrid microgrid, highlight their shortcomings, identify the areas of potential improvement, and develop low-cost and reliable control systems for the hybrid microgrid. This project is of significant environmental and economic benefits to Canada. It is supported by a Canadian company that is actively engaged in projects related to renewable energies and microgrids. The results of the proposed research will result in innovative solutions to the problems that are faced by the industrial partner in developing large-scale hybrid microgrids in Canada. In addition, the participation of the trainees in the proposed research and their collaboration with the industrial partner will provide them with valuable knowledge and experience and thereby lead to training highly qualified professionals.

交直流混合微电网是一项新兴的技术，它具有以下显著优点：(1)促进可再生能源和储能系统在配电网中的集成；(2)为用户提供可靠和高质量的电能；(3)提高发电、输电和配电的效率；(4)为电动汽车(EV)充电站提供理想的基础设施。然而，由于缺乏与其控制相关的适当经验、知识和技术，大规模混合微电网的发展一直受到阻碍。现有的微电网控制策略要么需要在高带宽通信基础设施上进行大量投资，要么在所有运行条件下都不能提供可接受的性能。此外，混合微电网中互联的直流和交流系统需要协调控制，这带来了额外的技术挑战。拟议的协作研发项目将旨在调查可应用于混合微电网的现有微电网控制策略的性能，突出其不足之处，确定潜在的改进领域，并开发低成本和可靠的混合微电网控制系统。该项目对加拿大具有显著的环境和经济效益。它得到了一家加拿大公司的支持，该公司积极参与与可再生能源和微电网相关的项目。拟议的研究结果将为工业合作伙伴在加拿大开发大规模混合微电网所面临的问题提供创新的解决方案。此外，受训人员参与拟议的研究以及他们与工业伙伴的合作将为他们提供宝贵的知识和经验，从而培养出高素质的专业人员。
