The transition from fossil fuels to renewable energies as power sources in the heavy industries is one of the main climate change mitigation strategies. The carbon footprint in mining is related to its inherent extraction ...

Beyond the impacting presence of non-linear loads, low-voltage microgrids also experience low energy efficiency and resonance phenomena when operating interconnected to a distribution grid that suffers from distorted ...

Several control schemes specifically designed to operate inverter-based industrial microgrids during voltage sags have been recently proposed. This paper first classifies these control schemes in three categories and then ...

This paper presents a Multi-Agent System (MAS) to model and enable an active power management in a multiple microgrids system consisting of batteries, photovoltaic and diesel micro sources in islanded or grid-connected ...

This paper presents a Multi-Agent System (MAS) to model and enable an active power management in a multiple microgrids system consisting of batteries, photovoltaic and diesel micro sources in islanded or grid-connected ...

This paper presents a methodology on the design of an optimal predictive control scheme applied to an islanded microgrid. The controller manages the batteries energy and performs a centralized load shedding strategy to ...

This study discusses a centralized and coordinated control of distributed multifunctional inverters connected to an electric grid. The multifunctional operation is based on the conservative power theory, which makes it ...

A multitask Asymmetrical Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter (ACHMI), suitable for microgrid systems with possible unbalanced and nonlinear loads, is presented. The primary advantage of ACHMI is to produce a staircase ...

Microgrids (MGs) are considered a reliable solution for the integration of a high level of intermittent distributed energy resources. However, renewable energy generation has added complexity to the optimal energy management ...
