READ MOREThe IEEE Standard 2030.7-2017 [2] defines microgrids as flexible systems of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar panels, wind turbines, and battery energy storage systems. A microgrid is a small-scale power generation and distribution system that functions as a single entity.
READ MOREMicrogrids Enabling Sustainability. As microgrid types 1–4 (see above) feature mostly small-scale generation units close to the point of consumption, they enable the exploitation of abundant distributed renewable energy resources, e.g., solar or wind power, or local bio-based fuels (Murthy 2012 ).
