Microgrid Technology and Microgrid Cluster Development is a comprehensive guide to microgrid systems fundamentals, optimization, control, protection, and energy management. The book explains microgrid architectures that might be combined to create a cluster of microgrids. This is a valuable resource for all those looking to gain a complete understanding of current microgrid and cluster technology, including students, researchers, faculty, R&D professionals, engineers, and other industry personnel with an interest in grid integration, power systems, and renewable energy. The microgrid is first defined as a standalone entity with potential interconnections with external grids. Then, the layout, line technology, and interface technology of potential microgrid cluster topologies are designed, with comparison and analysis of the various microgrid and cluster designs in terms of price, scalability, security, dependability, stability, communications, and business models. Key aspects are covered in detail, including optimization algorithms and the role of machine learning and artificial neural networks, control and protection techniques, and energy management and storage.
