The idea of microgrid, smart grid, and virtual power plant (VPP) is being developed to resolve the challenges of climate change in the 21st century, to ensure the use of renewable energy in the electrical grid. For the increasing demand for electricity, raising public consciousness about reducing carbon emission, the microgrid is established which is transformed into a virtual power plant (VPP) or a smart grid with the blessing of modern communication systems, intelligence technology, and smart devices. So, to keep these systems up-to-date and to ensure security, it is important to know the details about the uses and benefits of these systems in the developed world and also to improve control methods and automation, it is important to achieve the present essence of such systems. This paper is focused to contribute to this flourishing area of energy sustainability covering microgrid, smart grid, and virtual power plant by compiling and recapping their recent advancements, technical requirements, control problems, and solutions. The paper is mainly intended to address the role of control strategies applied to the microgrid, smart grid, and virtual power plant towards future energy generation, distribution, management, and security.INDEX TERMS Controllers, cyber security, microgrid, renewable energy, smart grid, system architectures, virtual power plant, world market.

“…In the grid connected mode it acts like a generator from the grid point of view while in the islanded mode it is independent from the utility grid and energy generation, storage, load control, power quality control and regulation are implemented in the standalone system [3]. One of the points defining the major attributes of a Smart Grid given by the 2007 Energy Independence and Security Act (ESIA07) is development and integration of distributed energy resources, especially renewable sources [4] [5]. [6] discusses the issue of optimizing network operation and use for accommodating DG integrating.…”

The purpose of this paper is to relate the issues which have an impact on the interconnection of distributed resources to the utility grid. Impact that can be clearly seen is with respect to the types of distributed resources and the power electronic (PE) devices used to interface them. A balance has to be maintained between the type of DER's and the interfaces in order to get the maximum benefit of incorporating Distributed Generation to the grid. Islanding methods which are the means for creating the microgrids and islanding detection methods are a critical feature. These, together with protection and reliability features have been discussed in the paper.

Due to the varied advantages like cleanliness, portability and suitability for electricity and heat generation the popularity of the fuel cell systems has been accentuated and much research is being done to diminish their drawbacks when used as distributed resources. This paper presents the modeling of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) and a dc-ac inverter interfaced to a radial distribution system. The interconnecting link between the SOFC and grid is a PWM inverter.Simulation results show a difference in the total harmonic distortion at both the PCC and feeder loads when different controllers are used. It is observed that the PI controller gives improved harmonics due to better instantaneous current control, wave-shaping and fixed inverter switching frequency.
