The increasing integration of electric vehicles (EVs) and renewable energy sources has accelerated the adoption of DC microgrids, where maintaining voltage stability and effective power sharing remains a critical challenge. Hybrid energy storage systems (HESS), combining batteries and supercapacitors, are commonly employed to address dynamic power variations. However, conventional proportional–integral (PI)-based control strategies for HESS can exhibit performance limitations under nonlinear and varying operating conditions. To overcome this drawback, this paper presents an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)-based control strategy for HESS located in a DC microgrid, with comparative evaluation against both conventional PI and traditional Fuzzy Logic controller (FLC) schemes. The proposed approach is evaluated using a detailed MATLAB/Simulink R2024a model of a DC microgrid including EVs. Simulation results show that, under normal operating conditions, the ANFIS-based control demonstrates improved transient response, reduced voltage fluctuations, and effective coordination between the battery and supercapacitor during renewable power variations, compared to PI and FLC-controlled systems. In addition to nominal performance assessment, this work investigates the vulnerability of the ANFIS controller to cyber-attacks. Two representative attack scenarios, false data injection (FDI) and denial-of-service (DoS), are applied to critical measurement and control signals of HESS. Simulation results reveal that, although the DC-bus voltage regulation is largely maintained during attack intervals, cyber manipulation significantly disrupts the intended HESS power-sharing behavior.
