Power sharing performance is a critical issue of hybrid energy storage system (HESS) in autonomous DC microgrid (MG). In this paper, a novel integral droop (ID) is proposed to mimic dynamic characteristics of the capacitor by using energy storages (ESs) with quick response. The main advantage of the proposed controller is that dynamic power sharing among ESs is automatically realized in the decentralized level. For a given HESS, ESs with the proposed ID enables to compensate fast power change while ESs with conventional voltage-power (V-P) droop provide low frequency components of power demand. With coordinated control between ID and V-P droop, high/low pass filters (LPF/HPF) are intrinsically formulated in HESS in order to obtain reasonable dynamic power allocations among ESs. Matlab/Simulink model of HESS is established for the verification of ID controller, in which the impacts of different ID coefficients on transient performances of the system are analyzed in detail. Finally, the effectiveness of proposed ID is experimentally validated on a HIL (hardware in loop) HESS platform.
