What will I learn in Microgrid technology & implementation?

You will master various concepts related to microgrid technology and implementation, such as smart grid and virtual power plant, types of distribution network, markets, control strategies and components. Among the components special attention is given to operation and control of power electronics interfaces.

What is Microgrid Certification Training?

Microgrid Certification Training is a 3-day course designed for all engineers who want to learn, design, or operate microgrids. It is also suitable for power traders to understand modern microgrid technologies and independent system operator personnel. The training covers understanding energy management systems (EMS) in microgrids, including centralized or decentralized microgrids.

What is Microgrid technology?

Microgrid technology is a local energy source with a control capability, comprising Energy Distribution Resources (DER), which include management, storage, and loads. One of the advantages of a microgrid is that they can be connected or disconnected from the grid to operate autonomously. (Microgrid technology is a local cluster energy source with a control capability comprising Energy Distribution Resources (DER), which cover management, storage, and loads. One advantage of microgrids is that they can be connected or disconnected from the grid to operate autonomously.)

What types of studies are conducted on microgrids?

The studies on microgrids are classified into two main topics: feasibility and economic studies, and control and optimization. The applications and types of microgrids are introduced first, and next, the objective of microgrid control is explained. Microgrid control falls under the categories of coordinated control and local control.

What is a microgrid learning path?

This learning path will cover the fundamental elements of microgrid definitions, design, and analysis. First Chapter provides a comprehensive overview of microgrid concepts, functional features, and benefits, followed by examples of applications around the world as well as possible future directions.

What are the components of microgrid control?

The microgrid control system consists of: (a) micro source and load controllers, (b) microgrid system central controller, and (c) distribution management system. The function of the microgrid control system is divided into three sections: (a) the upstream network interface, (b) microgrid control, and (c) protection, local control.
