3 FAQs about [Microgrid journal Zimbabwe]

What are the research prospects for a microgrid?

Finally, future research prospects in long-term low-cost energy storage, power/energy balancing, and stability control, are emphasized. 1. Introduction A microgrid is a power grid that gathers distributed renewable energy sources and promotes local consumption of renewable energies .

Why is balancing power/energy important in a zero-carbon microgrid?

There is a very high proportion of renewable power generation in zero-carbon microgrids, and the fluctuation of renewable power makes it difficult to meet the requirements of power/energy balance. Therefore, the research on balancing the power/energy in new power systems is important and has been given much attention.

Should grid-forming converters be used in a zero-carbon microgrid?

In a zero-carbon microgrid, grid-forming converters are always needed at the energy storage side to form the grid without frequency reference. In the future, new control strategies should be studied to enhance the inertia and mitigate the oscillation by coordinating grid-forming and grid-following converters. 6. Conclusions
