PROJECT TITLE :

Review of microgrid architectures – a system of systems perspective

ABSTRACT:

To better cope with the challenges posed by the planet nowadays, the transition of systems engineering principles to complicated, giant scale, integrated and evolutionary system of systems (SoSs) has occurred. On the opposite hand, distributed generation has made its mark in the ability distribution system, as a consequence of economic and environmental considerations. With the exponential advancement of technology, unconventional sources of generation, storage and microturbines are enhanced. The microgrid has paved its approach into distributed generation and appearance promising for future prospects. A review of microgrid architectures and models is presented in this study. Various control schemes devised for microgrids are reviewed. The concept of SoSs is introduced and its applications are discussed. A framework is proposed for microgrids from an SoS perspective and control paradigms based on SoS are explained in terms of microgrid control.
