The critical issues in a renewable energy based microgrid are ensuring continuous availability of power to the critical loads, and to provide supply to the maximum possible portion of the system under any abnormal conditions by topology management. An intelligent load shedding and fast reconfiguration of the system is therefore necessary in order to serve the critical loads and to maintain a proper...
Microgrids have gained a lot of interest under the smart grid vision demanding systematic procedures for their optimal construction and performance enhancement. By defining a new probabilistic index, this paper presents approaches for clustering active distribution systems into a set of microgrids with optimized reliability and supply-adequacy indices. After proposing two different methods for optimally...
Microgrids are defined as an area of network that is capable of operating autonomously from the rest of the electricity system. They achieve this by containing enough energy resources to meet all incorporated electrical (and thermal) loads, and by coordinating control in order to meet the participants' aims, and afford adequate quality/reliability of power and heat supply. From an economic point-of-view,...
