Smart microgrids represent a transformative approach to modernizing the electrical infrastructure, emphasizing energy efficiency, sustainability, and resilience. These advanced systems integrate renewable energy sources, sophisticated energy storage technologies, and intelligent control mechanisms, enabling a more decentralized and efficient energy management framework. By facilitating a higher penetration of renewable energy and enhancing storage capacities, smart microgrids significantly reduce dependency on traditional power grids and fossil fuels, thereby contributing to substantial reductions in carbon emissions. Their ability to operate autonomously, or in "island mode," ensures a reliable and uninterrupted power supply, even in the face of external grid failures, highlighting their critical role in improving system reliability and energy security. The comparative analysis of Grid-Connected and Hybrid Microgrids further elucidates the benefits of smart microgrid implementations. Hybrid Microgrids, with their greater reliance on renewable sources, higher energy efficiency, and extended operational independence, showcase superior performance in reducing emissions, lowering operational costs, and providing better returns on investment. This comparison not only underscores the economic viability and environmental benefits of smart microgrids but also demonstrates their potential to meet and surpass current and future energy demands efficiently. smart microgrids are revolutionizing core electrical infrastructure by fostering a shift towards more sustainable, efficient, and resilient energy systems. Their development and deployment are pivotal to achieving global energy and environmental goals, making them a cornerstone for the future of energy management and a model for sustainable development.

“…To address this issue, researchers are looking into better charging procedures and energy storage system design so the inclusion of huge numbers of EVs becomes cost-effective and advantageous to both the utility and the consumer [16,17]. However, EVs can benefit microgrids if chargers are built to allow bidirectional flow of power between the grid as well as the ESS.…”

Contingency Analysis of a Grid Connected EV's for Primary Frequency Control of an Industrial Microgrid Using Efficient Control Scheme

et al. 2022

After over a century of internal combustion engines ruling the transport sector, electric vehicles appear to be on the verge of gaining traction due to a slew of advantages, including lower operating costs and lower CO2 emissions. By using the Vehicle-to-Grid (or Grid-to-Vehicle if Electric vehicles (EVs) are utilized as load) approach, EVs can operate as both a load and a source. Primary frequency regulation and congestion management are two essential characteristics of this technology that are added to an industrial microgrid. Industrial Microgrids are made up of different energy sources such as wind farms and PV farms, storage systems, and loads. EVs have gained a lot of interest as a technique for frequency management because of their ability to regulate quickly. Grid reliability depends on this quick reaction. Different contingency, state of charge of the electric vehicles, and a varying number of EVs in an EV fleet are considered in this work, and a proposed control scheme for frequency management is presented. This control scheme enables bidirectional power flow, allowing for primary frequency regulation during the various scenarios that an industrial microgrid may encounter over the course of a 24-h period. The presented controller will provide dependable frequency regulation support to the industrial microgrid during contingencies, as will be demonstrated by simulation results, achieving a more reliable system. However, simulation results will show that by increasing a number of the EVs in a fleet for the Vehicle-to-Grid approach, an industrial microgrid’s frequency can be enhanced even further.

“…A centralized charging strategy of PHEVs has been presented to reduce voltage deviation via a series of fitness functions (Maigha and Mariesa Crow, (2014)). A PHEV smart charging strategy has been proposed to minimize the MG dependency on the main grid (Fouladi et al (2019)). An orderly charging strategy has been investigated by considering various factors such as the economic benefits of users (Liu A. et al (2018)), the working status of charging piles and charging habits of users (Chen and Huang (2019)), the fluctuation of the charging load (Cai et al (2021)), and so on.…”

To reduce the risk of voltage violation after gas station networks (GSNs) are attacked, this study investigates an inter-area mobile charging strategy of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) to decrease the charging load by taking full advantage of charging resources. First, considering the location of the charging station, the waiting time, and the charging fee, an inter-area mobile charging strategy of PHEVs is proposed, and a mobile charging model of PHEVs among regions is established to relieve the charging pressure. Second, the risk index is developed to analyze the risk of voltage violation in terms of the results of probabilistic load flow (PLF). Finally, the proposed strategy is tested on a modified coastal active power distribution network, and simulation results show that the charging load of PHEVs is dispersed among regions and the risk of voltage over-limit can be reduced.
