Introduction to three control methods of microgrid
In this chapter, different microgrid control methods ranging from conventional to recently introduced ones are studied and categorized into three major groups: centralized, decentralized and distributed control methods. . This distribution network is designed to possess desired characteristics such as reliability, security, stability and sustainability of energy. Distributed Generation (DG) employs various dispersed energy sources to generate electric power reliably and close to the load that is being served. A microgrid can connect and disconnect from the grid to. . NLR develops and evaluates microgrid controls at multiple time scales. Our researchers evaluate in-house-developed controls and partner-developed microgrid components using software modeling and hardware-in-the-loop evaluation platforms.
