“…Its main focus is to test various market-based strategies for managing power consumption and advanced technologies to support new power grid elements, such as renewable generation, electric vehicle charging framework, and automation transmission and distribution networks. Furthermore, in Singapore, microgrid test beds are being implemented in the Eco Campus and Semakau Island microgrids with a focus on enhancing economic operation and maximizing the reliability of the power supply [35] The Clean Energy and Transactive Campus (CETC) project at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has created a multi-campus testbed formed by connecting PNNL, the University of Washington, and Washington State University. It is used to develop transaction-based energy management solutions [36] and provides a platform for research and development on building-to-grid integration and information-based energy efficiency.…”

Variability and uncertainty of renewable distributed generation increase power grid complexity, necessitating the development of advanced control strategies. demonstrates a real-world testbed and the implementation of control strategies on it to mitigate the challenges associated with variability and uncertainty of renewable distributed generation. This control-centric testbed includes 4.6 MW of controllable building loads, a 1 MW solar array, and a 125 kW / 130 kWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The capabilities of the testbed are illustrated by highlighting the implementation of three specific scenarios relevant to future smart grid infrastructures. In the first scenario, photovoltaic output variability is mitigated with the BESS using adaptive moving average and adaptive state of charge control methods. The second and third scenarios demonstrate peak load management and load following control to manage uncertainty using the Intelligent Load Control (ILC) algorithm. The ILC modifies controllable loads using a prioritization matrix and an analytical hierarchy process. The three scenarios all operate at a different time-constant, and are each effectively addressed, demonstrating the versatility and flexibility of the presented testbed. This demonstrated ability to rapidly test the efficacy of alternate control algorithms on a real system is crucial to the maturation of future smart-grid.

“…To verify the proposed control methods an standard and a testbed for microgrid was needed, then the first version of microgrid testbed was formed to test the control strategies [39,40]. Since it is a popular research field, there are several well-known testbeds made by several research groups all over the world for microgrid tests [41][42][43][44].…”

-It is obvious that power quality is an important characteristic of today's distribution power systems as loadsbecome more sensitive on the other hand nonlinear loads are increasing in the electrical distribution system. Considering the distributed nature of harmonic loads, the need for distributed power quality improvement (PQI) is inevitable. From years ago, researchers have been working on various kinds of filters and devices to enhance the overall power quality of power system, but today the nature of distribution system has been changed and power electronic based DGs play an important role in distribution grids. In this paper, a thorough survey is done on power quality enhancement devices with emphasis on ancillary services of multi-functional DGs. A literature review is also done on microgrids concept, testbeds and related control methods. Although there were some applications of DGs for PQI improvement these applications were not defined multi-functional DGs. Various control methods are studied and categorized regarding different viewpoints in the literature. Finally, a couple of thorough comparisons are done between the available techniques considering the nature, capabilities, advantages and implementation costs.
