Control of microgrid — A review

Increasing electrical demand, economic constraints of generation expansion, quality control of supplied electricity and utilization of renewable sources led to the invention of microgrid. A Microgrid is the system comprising Distributed Generation (DG), energy storage devices, distribution network, loads and hierarchical control & management networks. To integrate the energy from DG to grid, power electronic interfaces are used with control strategies. This paper gives insight of microgrid control and discusses various aspects related it.
