Summary: | The concept of a microgrid (MG) is proposed for the better penetration of renewable energy into the utility grid and consequently helping energy management to simplify important grid issues, like savings for peak demand by taking advantage of dynamic pricing and reduced energy cost. In the case of DC distribution, MGs are the best selection for designing a smart grid. MGs can be operated by multiloads and multisources. The combination can be of renewable and traditional sources. A MG can be utilized as a single user by operating it off-grid and be utilized as a grid-connected configuration. MGs have the ability to control renewable sources to interact with the smart grid for power balancing of the utility grid by introducing advanced energy management. The focus of this book is on case study-based research and solutions for rural electrification. This book also deals with the low-voltage DC distribution systems for various applications like charging of electric vehicles.
