Model-free control of microgrids
  A new "model-free" control methodology is applied for the first time to power systems included in microgrids networks. We evaluate its performances regarding output load and supply variations in different working configuration of the microgrid. Our approach, which utilizes "intelligent" PI controllers, does not require any converter or microgrid model identification while ensuring the stability and the robustness of the controlled system. Simulations results show that with a simple control structure, the proposed control method is almost insensitive to fluctuations and large load variations.
