International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems

4.2 Based on distribution system. In terms of power, the microgrid is classified as an AC power system, a DC power system, or a hybrid system, 116 which when applied, reveal their advantages and disadvantages. 117, 118 There exist many studies on the advantages and disadvantages of both AC and DC microgrids.

Microgrid Controller

The microgrid consists of a behind-the-meter (BTM) solar photovoltaic (PV) system, a battery energy storage system (BESS), a combined heat and power (CHP) generator, and standby diesel generators. We modeled this microgrid by leveraging the ETAP software and performed power system studies for both grid-connected and islanded modes of operation.
