Powerful Tools for Analyzing Power Flow of Modern Microgrids

Microgrids integrate small-scale electrical energy sources and energy storage systems into local electrical distribution grids. This modern concept facilitates the integration of renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind energy, for greener energy generation. Also, microgrids are potentially more reliable than conventional electrical distribution networks, because they can operate independently if disconnected from the main utility grid under any circumstance. As a result of their new and unique operational philosophy, the tools used to analyze power flow in traditional electricity grids simply cannot do the job for microgrids...
