Microgrid technology refers to a small-scale power system with distributed energy resources. To effectively harness the potential of distributed generation, it's crucial to adopt a system where the associated loads and generation are treated as a single entity or a microgrid.
The studies on microgrids are classified into two main topics: feasibility and economic studies, and control and optimization. The applications and types of microgrids are introduced first, and next, the objective of microgrid control is explained. Microgrid control falls under the categories of coordinated control and local control.
Enabling Regulatory and Business Models for Broad Microgrid Deployment By 2035, microgrids are envisioned to be essential building blocks of the future electricity delivery system to support resilience, decarbonization, and affordability.
Microgrid research and development (R&D) goals to advance foundational science and technology were defined jointly with stakeholder groups during two workshops held in 2011 and 2012.
