DC Microgrid Control using a Multi-Function Multi-Domain Image-based Hierarchical Digital Twin

This study presents a digital twin framework for operational management of DC microgrids through the integration of multi-function, multi-domain digital images within the hierarchical digital twin structure. Digital images depict various aspects of physical assets at different levels of fidelity. The frame-work allows the hierarchical digital twin to respond to decision maker queries, offering estimations and analysis. A real-time simulation case study showcases the practical implementation of this approach and demonstrates its potential to enhance decision making and operational management of DC microgrids.
