From developing large-scale synthetic grid models to harnessing the end user''s flexibility and large computing loads, the department has a long history of excellence in pioneering novel, technological and market solutions for the
I am currently a PhD student at Center for Research On Microgrids (CROM), Department of Energy Technology, Aalborg University, Denmark. The research is focusing on Energy
A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. It can connect and disconnect from the grid to operate in grid-connected or island mode. Microgrids can improve customer reliability and resilience to grid disturbances.
Electrical utilities have begun testing microgrid concepts in laboratory-type settings. One example is Duke Energy, which maintains two test microgrid facilities: one in Gaston County, North Carolina , and one in Charlotte, North Carolina .
Increasingly, microgrid research and development is focusing on adding “intelligence” to optimize operational controls and market participation , , , , , , , , , , , . 3. Microgrid motivation
There are many organizations that can provide this validation, verification, and testing support, some examples include private companies, DoD laboratories, DOE national laboratories, and universities. Text Box 9 provides examples of testing for microgrid projects. Text Box 9. Examples of Microgrid Testing
As part of the microgrid design, an electrical engineer will need to determine the available fault currents in the islanded system and perform a coordination study to determine the appropriate settings for the protective devices in both utility grid-connected and islanded modes of operation.
microgrid management system is an integrated real-time power distribution management system unifying SCADA functions, energy resource controls, and load management, with a common user interface.
