Summary:This paper develops a fully distributed control scheme using a distributed finite-time consensus protocol for voltage regulation of smart loads through effective demand-side management in islanded microgrids, where each distributed energy resource (DER) requires merely information exchanges via a sparse communication. The proposed distributed finite-time average controllers are able to implement locally for voltage regulation by the local communication among DERs. Due to the proposed distributed controllers implemented on local DERs in a distributed way, no central controller is required. Accordingly, the Graph Discovery Algorithm is employed to achieve the self-expanding microgrids. The effectiveness of the proposed control methodology is verified by the simulation of an islanded microgrid in MATLAB/SimPowerSystems.
