Technical design of microgrids is a complex process taking into account multiple parameters listed in Section 1.6.2. Consequently, various models are required to understand a variety of microgrid operational, control, and integration aspects such as performance, grid interaction, and protection impact in a range of scenarios.
Thus, the main components of a microgrid are (i) local generation, (ii) end-use loads and demand-side energy management, (iii) energy storage, (iv) microgrid monitoring and control system, (v) utility interconnection, and (vi) other components like power electronics and protection.
Under the control approach, there can be centralized and decentralized management systems based on number of entities responsible for decision-making processes and single point of failure. Under power technology, the microgrid systems can be alternating current, direct current or hybrid systems.
A milligrid often does not have a single point of connection with the utility grid, which is characteristic of most microgrids. (b) Protections. Microgrids are able to operate connected or disconnected from the main grid at any time. This dynamic scheme complicates the design of the protection scheme which must guarantee
