6 FAQs about [Microgrid integrated clustering technology]

Which concepts affect microgrid cluster performance?

Three main concepts that can potentially affect the microgrid cluster performance are identified and classified into (i) the layout, (ii) the line technology and (iii) the interconnection technology. Then, the possible architectures within these concepts are identified and defined.

What is a microgrid cluster?

A microgrid cluster can be identified as one of the layouts depicted in Fig. 4. Fig. 4. Layout architectures. The Parallel Connected Microgrids with an external grid (PCM) layout, represented in Fig. 4 (a), refers to an structure in which all microgrids are connected to the same external grid, where each microgrid has only one PCC.

What is the protection system for a cluster of microgrids?

In the present study, the protection system for the cluster of microgrids is studied and treated according to the three defined architecture levels, being the layout, the line technology and the interconnection technology. 4.3.1. Layout The layout defines how microgrids are interconnected.

How can interconnection technology benefit a cluster of microgrids?

The profitability of communication devices in a cluster of microgrids is clearly benefited from installing such flexible and controllable power electronics as interconnection technology.

What are DC microgrids?

Policies and ethics DC microgrids are a promising solution for integrating distributed generation into the main grid. These microgrids comprise distributed generation units, energy storage systems, loads, and control units. They can operate in grid-connected and off-grid modes (islanded...

How does line technology affect the security of microgrid clustering?

Line technology The type of line technology affects the security of the microgrid clustering in the sense that it might imply additional equipment and condition the failure rate of the interconnection lines. The number of contingencies in lines is usually given in km/year.
