Communication infrastructure (CI) in microgrids (MGs) allows for the application of different
control architectures for the secondary control (SC) layer. The use of new SC architectures …

Microgrid technology offers a new practical approach to harnessing the benefits of
distributed energy resources in grid-connected and island environments. There are several …

This paper presents a fuzzy adaptive model predictive approach for load frequency control
of an isolated micro grid. A generalized state space model of a typical isolated micro grid …

The idea of microgrid, smart grid, and virtual power plant (VPP) is being developed to
resolve the challenges of climate change in the 21st century, to ensure the use of renewable …

Controllable distributed resources can offer great potential benefits to the power systems
since they possess considerable operation flexibility. However, a high-dimensional …

Alaska has over 200 communities operating remote islanded microgrids that are not
connected to each other or to the North American electric grid. These communities range in …

As wind power generation transits from centralized development mode to decentralized on-
site consumption mode, microgrid (MG) can provide an efficient solution for wind power …

Wind generators and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are increasing rapidly in
modern power grids. Despite all their merits, these two classes of sources are limited by …

Wind–diesel power systems (WDPS) are isolated microgrids which combine diesel
generators (DGs) with wind turbine generators (WTGs). The WDPS modelled in this study …

Demand response and distributed energy storage play a crucial role in improving the
efficiency and reliability of electric grids. This article describes a strategy for optimally …
