READ MOREMicrogrids are an emerging technology that is becoming increasingly popular in developed and developing countries. The microgrid can operate in grid-connected, islanded, and hybrid modes [1]. In grid-connected mode, the microgrid is connected to the main power grid and can either import or export electricity as needed.
