Abstract:
This paper describes the multi-port hub concept for peer-to-peer energy transfer that cooperates the multiple energy sources. We discussed the multi-port hub using bidirectional DC/DC converters in a star connection with an energy buffer. We designed power flow dynamics of multi-port hub by feedback control based on two-port characteristics of converter and discussed its stability. Finally, we demonstrate the proposed multi-port hub by transient simulation.
