The Working Group was asked to identify the main elements required to justify, develop, and implement viable microgrids, which the Group defined as follows: Microgrids are
READ MOREThis paper presents the application of economic predictive control to minimize the cost of operating a nonisolated microgrid connected to an electric utility (EU) subject to a periodic internal demand. The microgrid considered is composed of a set of photovoltaic panels and two storage systems and it can buy and sell energy to an EU.

READ MOREA microgrid is a local electrical grid with defined electrical boundaries, correctly, engineering modelling is needed. Multiple simulation tools and optimization tools exist to model the economic and electric effects of microgrids. This pilot program was the first such project in France.
READ MOREA microgrid, regarded as one of the cornerstones of the future smart grid, uses distributed generations and information technology to create a widely distributed automated energy delivery network. This paper presents a review of the microgrid concept, classification and control strategies. Besides, various prospective issues and challenges
READ MOREEnergy sharing has gained substantial popularity in improving the controllability of distributed energy resources (DERs). In this chapter, we introduce the concept of sharing economy as a novel and promising business model in microgrids. We first compare the operation schemes with and without energy sharing, which explains the role of sharing economy in
