Abstract. The microgrid represents a controllable electric entity that contains different loads into distributed energy resources. All typical microgrids use two or more sources by which electricity is generated, at least one of which is a renewable source. In this respect the main issues of the energy storage systems (ESS) are the enhancing
Solar plus energy storage microgrids offer increased resiliency as they are highly resistant to impacts from climate events, cyber-attacks, and other occurrences because damage to one microgrid makes no difference to the overall network.
By coupling energy storage to the PV DC bus with a DC-to-DC converter, equipment and installation costs can be reduced, when compared to AC coupled solar plus storage systems. In contrast to centralized, AC-coupled storage, DC-coupled storage eliminates the need for AC switchgear or a substation interconnection and reduces site work.
