Abstract

The need to supply electric power to any part of the world motivated the creation of the term microgrid. In recent years it has been gaining strength because a microgrid facilitates the integration of renewable sources (solar, wind, thermal) for the distribution of electrical energy. Microgrids can operate independently, either in isolation or in coordination with the main network because they integrate their own power generators, storage resources and information technologies that allow the organization and control of the network. The implementation of a microgrid forces to propose control strategies that allow to satisfy with the demand of local load, to take advantage of the greater amount of energy, to reduce costs and to increase reliability. This review article presents the architecture of a microgrid, modes of operation, levels of hierarchical control, and a comparison of research that has resulted in simulations and implementation of different types of microgrid controllers.
