What policies have been implemented to promote the development and adoption of microgrids?
Several countries have implemented policies to promote the development and adoption of microgrids. In the United States, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has implemented Order-2222 , establishing rules enabling microgrids to participate in wholesale energy markets.
What is a microgrid strategy?
The Strategy development process began with microgrid experts deliberating on areas the Strategy should focus on for impactful results in key metrics, such as reliability, resilience, decarbonization, and affordability, in the next five to ten years.
Are microgrid policies related to distributed energy policies?
Many studies exist on microgrid technologies and operation, but few studies on policies, incentives and barriers to microgrid promotion and deployment. It is to be understood that microgrid policies are unavoidably related to distributed energy polices and precisely renewable energy.
How does government support microgrids?
Support for microgrids comes from research and development (R&D) programs at federal and state levels, software and tools, grants and funding support to incentivize demonstration projects, and tax and financial incentives for the installation of distributed energy [2, 3, 6, 126].
Why are regulatory and policy frameworks important for microgrids?
Regulatory and policy frameworks are crucial in facilitating the growth and acceptance of microgrids. However, several challenges related to these frameworks need to be addressed. One of the primary issues is the variation in regulations that govern microgrids across different countries and states.
Are microgrids a potential for a modernized electric infrastructure?
