6 FAQs about [History of Smart Microgrid Development]
Are micro-grids the future of smart grids?
Micro-grids have been developed for over two decades as building blocks for future smart grids. Micro-grids have appeared with the advantages such as control flexibility, easy connection of renewable resources, high efficiency and immunity to large area blackouts.
Where are micro-grids developed?
Nowadays, both pilot and commercialized micro-grids have been developed in many countries and areas in the world. America first proposed the completed concept of micro-grid . The CERTS is main research organization of American micro-grid and supported from US Department of Energy and California Energy Commission.
What drives microgrid development?
The driving forces in microgrid development at the state and local levels include renewable energy requirements as reflected in renewable portfolio standards (RPS) in 29 states and Washington, DC; renewable portfolio goals in eight states; and increasing concerns regarding power system resilience due to growing extreme climate events [38, 39, 40].
When did OE start a microgrid program?
Figure 1. Select U.S. Federal microgrid assessment and demonstration projects (source: OE) OE’s first major program, the Renewable and Distributed Systems Integration (RDSI) program, began in 2008 . The nine projects initiated in 2008 are shown in green on Figure 1*.
How a microgrid is developed in the EU?
In the EU, microgrid development is accompanied with comprehensive R&D efforts supported by a series of EU’s Framework Programs (FPs) . Demonstration projects are developed starting in FP 5 to now with focus on island and remote microgrid system, utility scale multi-microgrid, control and operation.
What are the challenges of microgrid development?
The development of microgrid has been fraught with challenges of low inertia, renewable energy uncertainty, load complexity, and communication integration reliability. The system-level control and stability issues with microgrid are urgently in need for research.
