18. ENERGY MANAGEMENT
 Presence of multiple, small DER units with significantly different power capacities and characteristics
 Potentially no dominant source of energy generation during an autonomous mode; i.e., lack of infinite bus
 Fast response of electronically coupled DER units that can adversely affect voltage/angle stability when
appropriate provisions are not in place

19. ENERGY MANAGEMENT
 The microgrid PMS assigns real and reactive power reference for DG Units to
1. Efficiently share real/reactive power requirements to DG units
2. Quickly respond to disturbances and transients due to the changes in the system operating mode.
3. Determine the final power generation set-points of the DG units
4. Provide a means for re-synchronization of the autonomous microgrid with the main grid for reconnection

20. MICROGRID ADVANTAGES
 In peak load periods it prevents utility grid failure by reducing the load on the grid
 Significant environmental benefits made possible by the use of low or zero emission generators.
 A major advantage of a Microgrid, is its ability, during a utility grid disturbance, to separate and
isolate itself from the utility seamlessly with little or no disruption to the loads within the
Microgrid.
 The use of both electricity and heat permitted by the close proximity of the generator to the user,
thereby increasing the overall energy efficiency.
 Microgrid can act to mitigate the electricity costs to its users by generating some or all of its
electricity needs.

21. MICROGRID DISADVANTAGES
 Electrical energy needs to be stored in battery banks thus requiring Maintenace and more space.
 Resynchronization with the utility grid is difficult.
 Issues such as standby charges and net metering may pose obstacles for Microgrid

22. FUTURE RESEARCH AREAS
 Communication systems architecture, protocols, and tools are essential in microgrid implementation to ensure
stable, reliable, and optimal operation
 Microgrid control studies will improve system reliability, efficiency and power quality
 Development of energy storage system integrated to microgrid

23. FUTURE SCOPE
IN THE NEAR FUTURE WHEN

SYSTEM WILL BE
AFFORDABLE THEN
MICROGRIDS WILL BECOME
MORE POPULAR AND
CONVENTIONAL GRID WILL
BE REPLACED BY MICRO
GRID.
RESEARCH ARE GOING

STABILITY AND RELIABILITY
OF THE MICROGRID FOR
EFFECTTIVE WORKING.
