Title
Networked Microgrids: State-of-the-Art and Future Perspectives
Abstract
The operation of multiple microgrids (MGs) in coordination with distribution system enables high penetration of locally available distributed energy resources (DERs). This approach enhances the reliability and resiliency of the power supply significantly. Also, the overall cost of energy gets reduced because of the integration of cost-free power from photovoltaic panels and wind turbines. The most effective utilization of DERs can be achieved through networked MGs. However, the implementation of the concepts of networked MGs requires extensive research. This paper presents a comprehensive literature review of the most important research works on networked MGs. Major benefits and challenges related to this new and highly exploring area have been analyzed. Also, some of the most important research areas related to networked MGs have been highlighted and discussed as the future perspectives.
