“…Swift and exact voltage and frequency control are essential requirements for weak low-voltage network-based microgrids to operate in islanded mode [198]. The continuous operation of the plant raises the microgrid system's maintenance requirements [199]. A model predictive control approach has been used to improve power, cost, and production along with the presence of uncertainties [200].…”

The grid integration of microgrids and the selection of energy management systems (EMS) based on robustness and energy efficiency in terms of generation, storage, and distribution are becoming more challenging with rising electrical power demand. The problems regarding exploring renewable energy resources with efficient and durable energy storage systems demand side management and sustainable solutions to microgrid development to maintain the power system’s stability and security. This article mainly focuses on the overview of the recent developments of microgrid EMS within the control strategies and the implementation challenges of the microgrid. First, it provides energy management strategies for the major microgrid components, including load, generation, and energy storage systems. Then, it presents the different optimization approaches employed for microgrid energy management, such as classical, metaheuristic, and artificial intelligence. Moreover, this article sheds light on the major implementation challenges of microgrids. Overall, this article provides interactive guidelines for researchers to assist them in deciding on their future research.

“…Different policies of on-grid and off-grid rural electrification in Nepal have been reviewed which have been imposed by two different organizations, namely, Nepal Electricity Authority and Alternative Energy Promotion Centre. Also, different issues in rural electrification have been identified on connection of micro hydropower and mini grid development [48].…”

The demand for high quality electricity and growing electricity consumption has been caused by increasing electrification of daily life causes and the rising number of sensitive or critical loads. Due to the rapid increase in global energy consumption and the diminishing of fossil fuels, the customer demand for new generation capacities and efficient energy production, delivery and utilization keeps rising. The micro grid concept has the potential to solve major problems arising from large penetration of distributed generation in distribution systems. A proper control strategy should be implemented for a successful operation of a micro grid. Different load models can be simulated and analyzed using MATLAB and PSCAD software. In this paper, the work done in the field of Micro Grid has been reviewed.
