“…11(a) represents (13). Using (13) and assuming that sufficient power is available at the power converter input [209], virtual synchronous generators can be implemented by software. The virtual swing equation is shown in (14).…”

“…Regarding DC-MGs, there are very few papers reporting cooperative control of virtual DC generators, including virtual capacitors, which can be used to avoid unacceptable voltage variations. In [217], an analogy between the dynamic of a synchronous generator [see (13)] and the dynamic of a capacitor in parallel with a resistor, is proposed. In this line of work, it is demonstrated in [217] that a virtual capacitor C v is mathematically equivalent to the inertia J of a SG and that conductance is equivalent to the friction coefficient D of the synchronous generator.…”

There is an increasing interest and research effort focused on the analysis, design and implementation of distributed control systems for AC, DC and hybrid AC/DC microgrids. It is claimed that distributed controllers have several advantages over centralised control schemes, e.g., improved reliability, flexibility, controllability, black start operation, robustness to failure in the communication links, etc. In this work, an overview of the state-of-the-art of distributed cooperative control systems for isolated microgrids is presented. Protocols for cooperative control such as linear consensus, heterogeneous consensus and finitetime consensus are discussed and reviewed in this paper. Distributed cooperative algorithms for primary and secondary control systems, including (among others issues) virtual impedance, synthetic inertia, droopfree control, stability analysis, imbalance sharing, total harmonic distortion regulation, are also reviewed and discussed in this survey. Tertiary control systems, e.g., for economic dispatch of electric energy, based on cooperative control approaches, are also addressed in this work. This review also highlights existing issues, research challenges and future trends in distributed cooperative control of microgrids and their future applications.

Microgrid is an important and necessary component of smart grid development. It is a small-scale power system with distributed energy resources. To realize the distributed generation potential, adopting a system where the associated loads and generation are considered as a subsystem or a microgrid is essential. In this article, a literature review is made on microgrid technology.The studies run on microgrid are classified in the two topics of feasibility and economic studies and control and optimization. The applications and types of microgrid are introduced first, and next, the objective of microgrid control is explained. Microgrid control is of the coordinated control and local control categories. The small signal stability and methods in improving it are discussed.The load frequency control in microgrids is assessed.

Summary A microgrid is a trending small‐scale power system comprising of distributed power generation, power storage, and load. This article presents a brief overview of the microgrid and its operating characteristics. The integration of microgrids with the existing power system has been challenging and requires time to time modifications. To analyze the changing demand, the article discusses the modifications made in IEEE 1547 integration standards. The article recollects and reviews the control strategies of certain microgrid testbeds installed all around the world. A focus has been drawn toward the integration of microgrids in a developing country like India. An overview of the policies followed and the challenges faced to integrate the microgrid in the Indian power industry is presented. The article concludes with the worthy findings for the future aspects of research to improve the overall performance along with the smooth integration of the microgrid.
