Advancements and Challenges in Microgrid Technology: A
Different control problems in a MG system such as frequency and voltage stability, load balancing, bidirectional power flow with EV integration, power quality improvement, energy
One of the critical challenges of microgrid control is to ensure that the microgrid operates stably and efficiently, even in the presence of uncertainty and disturbances. This operation uses advanced control algorithms, such as model predictive control (MPC) and robust control [ ].
Factors such as stability and operational control are of paramount importance in both modes of operation due to considerations such as frequency, voltage, optimal power transfer, and islanding detection, among others. The control topology and stability of microgrid applications and system modelling vary depending on the specific applications.
Central power system failures have persisted as a result of the microgrids' instability. Microgrid technology integration at the load level has been the main focus of recent research in the field of microgrids. The conventional power grids are now obsolete since it is difficult to protect and operate numerous interconnected distributed generators.
Another critical aspect of microgrid control is the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, into the microgrid. Renewable energy sources are characterized by their high variability and uncertainty, making it difficult to predict their power output.
