Introducing Microgrid
Cost effective and resilient access to power supply
What is a Microgrid?
Modern, localized, small-scale grids
A microgrid refers to
Distributed energy resources and loads that can be operated in a controlled, coordinated way
They can be connected to the main power grid, operate in islanded mode or be completely off-grid.

Microgrids are low- or medium-voltage grids located at or near the consumption sites.
They can generate power from both renewable and conventional sources.

Microgrids are increasingly being equipped with energy storage systems, as batteries become more cost competitive.
The system is controlled through a microgrid controller incorporating demand-response so that demand can be
matched to available supply in the safest and most optimized manner. A flywheel or battery-based grid stabilizing
system can be included to offer real and reactive power support.

The concept of a microgrid is not new: the earliest electricity networks were essentially microgrids before they were
joined into regional and national grids. What is new is their changing and expanding role, in the face of rising power
demands, the falling cost of renewable sources, and the increasing need for supply resilience and autonomy both on-
and off-grid.

Modern, localized, small-scale grids

Microgrid Power grid

Distributed energy Power grids are larger
resources and loads that conventional and spread
can be operated in a out grids with high
controlled, coordinated way voltage power
either connected to the transmission capabilities
main power grid or in
islanded1 mode Microgrid technology can be
applied to weak grids making
the network more robust
Microgrids are low or medium
voltage grids without power
transmission capabilities and are
typically not geographically Nanogrid
spread out Low voltage grids that
typically serve a single
building
