Microgrid became one of the key spot in research on distributed energy systems. Since the definition of the microgrid is paradigm of the first time, investigation in this area is growing continuously and there are numerous research projects in this moment all over the world. The increased infiltration of nonlinear loads and power electronic interfaced distribution generation system creates power quality issues in the distributed power system. In this paper, a comprehensive survey on microgrid to improve the power quality parameters is taken as the main objective. Furthermore, the detailed investigations are explored in this paper for the enhancement of power quality issues with the help of an optimization technique, filters, controllers, FACTS devices, compensators, and battery storage.

Currently, the worth of power generation on the basis of renewable sources is rapidly growing. Correspondingly the microgrids and the DG units are impressed the researchers for their peculiar features. Power sharing is the major concern when various DGs are connected to the microgrid via power electronic converters. It is mandatory to achieve an appropriate power sharing when the manifold DGs are activated in parallel. For that, the two ultimate quantities-power angle δ and voltage magnitude V are regulated to acquire the real and reactive power sharing correspondingly. Many innovative control techniques have been used for load sharing. The most common method of local load sharing is the droop characteristics. Subsequently, there is a swift momentum in the advancement of researchers to meet the challenges of the droop control techniques in the power sharing concerns, an extensive literature review on active and reactive power sharing, voltage and frequency control in microgrid has been emphasized. The various conventional and modified droop control techniques/strategies that relates to power sharing issues have been highlighted in this work.

Hi-tech scenario and the ecological compression are the key point to drive the intervention of the renewable in the distribution system. In the perspective of complex power system planners, the transient performance of the microgrid is the main concern. For that purpose, various fault cases are explored in order to examine the microgrid transient performance when subjected to accidental events. In this work, the microgrid is modelled with two distributed generations (DGs) tied with a converter separately. With this intention, droop control strategy is adopted for the microsources to examine the microgrid performance during the symmetrical and unsymmetrical fault events. The ability of the control strategy adopted in this work and its effectiveness are evaluated through Matlab/Simulink platform.
