An Overview Study of Micro-Grids for Self-Production in Renewable Energies

Micro-grids (μ-grids) are small-scale power grids, specially designed to provide low voltage (LV) power supply to a small number of consumers.

Description
Summary:Micro-grids (μ-grids) are small-scale power grids, specially designed to provide low voltage (LV) power supply to a small number of consumers. These networks include: different production units (energy resources), storage devices and local controllable loads, which have the possibility of being controlled. In this chapter, we will study in detail the constitution of an electrical micro-grid, their two operating modes (connected mode and islanded mode), and their controls. On the other hand, we will also discuss on hybrid micro-grids and their advantages. We will also discuss for the monitoring and data logging products used in micro-grids and hybrid micro-grids. Finally, at the end of this chapter we will ended with the importance of micro-grids systems.
