Houshang Karimi Houshang - Karimi@polymtl - Ca: Microgrids Control

This document outlines a presentation on microgrid control. It defines microgrids and discusses their advantages such as increased reliability and power quality. Microgrids are categorized based on voltage level and energy sources. Existing standards for microgrid interconnection are also presented. Key differences between microgrids and conventional power systems include their dynamic response, controllability of sources, and low short circuit currents. Challenges of microgrid control include optimal distributed generation and storage management, protection against overcurrent, comprehensive standards development, and decentralized voltage and frequency control.
