Four special features of smart microgrids
Smart Microgrids use: 1) Digital information and control 2) Real time efforts to optimize the grid operations 3) Smart metering system, smart real time integration (real-time response information on energy consumption) and an electricity storage. . Microgrids are small-scale power grids that operate independently to generate electricity for a localized area, such as a university campus, hospital complex, military base or geographical region. What is a Microgrid? v Group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources. . By incorporating renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, and advanced control systems, microgrids help to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and promote the use of clean and sustainable energy sources. While they can be made to operate in tandem with central grids, they are mostly designed to cater to energy needs of local population and run autonomously as self-sufficient power units.
