This paper presents a dependable control system based on the Internet of Things (IoT) to control and manage the energy flow of renewable energy collected by solar panels within a microgrid. Data for optimal control include not only measurements from local sensors but also meteorological information retrieved in real-time from online sources. For system fault tolerance across the whole distributed control system featuring multiple controllers, dependable controllers are developed to control and optimise the tracking performance of photovoltaic arrays to maximally capture solar radiation and maintain system resilience and reliability in real time despite failures of one or more redundant controllers due to a problem with communication, hardware or cybersecurity. Experimental results have been obtained to evaluate the validity of the proposed approach. date: 2017-08-11 date_type: published official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8056441/ full_text_status: public pres_type: paper event_title: 2017 20th International Conference on Electrical Machines and Systems (ICEMS) event_location: Sydney, Australia event_dates: 11-14 Aug 2017 event_type: conference refereed: TRUE citation: Phung, Manh Duong and Villefromoy, Michel and Ha, Quang (2017) Management of solar energy in microgrids using IoT-based dependable control.
