Energy Generation: Microgrids rely on a combination of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, and traditional energy sources, such as diesel generators. The mix of energy sources depends on the specific energy needs and requirements of the microgrid.
Energy Storage: Energy storage systems, such as batteries, are an important component of microgrids, allowing energy to be stored for times when it is not being generated. This helps to ensure a stable and reliable source of energy, even when renewable energy sources are not available.
Another use case for battery storage on microgrids is aggregating BESS as a virtual power plant (VPP) to correct imbalances in the utility grid. At the grid level, when the supply of power from renewables temporarily drops, utilities need to respond quickly to maintain equilibrium between supply and demand and stabilize the grid frequency.
Energy Management: Microgrids need a system to manage the flow of energy, ensuring that energy is being used efficiently and effectively. This includes monitoring and controlling the mix of energy sources, as well as balancing the energy supply and demand.
Microgrids play a crucial role in the transition towards a low carbon future. By incorporating renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, and advanced control systems, microgrids help to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and promote the use of clean and sustainable energy sources.
