An outline of Sustainability and Microgrid Control's History and Future Pathways

Traditional energy production, such as production, transmission, and distribution, as well as consumption, has produced a significant disparity between output and consumption. As a result, the manufacturing sector's energy demand rises, as does fossil fuel use, causing economic and environmental concerns. Today, because of worries about the impact of greenhouse gases and global warming on the environment. The electrical sector has evolved toward the use of distributed generation (DG) in the power system, particularly at the distribution network level, as a result of government incentive programs. The inclusion of DG in the electricity system has resulted in several advantages, including reduced transmission line losses, increased system dependability and flexibility, and reduced transmission line and distribution feeder density. Both when linked to the mains and when utilized independently of the mains (islands), they may be coordinated and regulated. Microgrids can employ a variety of renewable energy sources as major energy suppliers, including solar cells (PV), wind turbines, and tiny water. As a result, microgrids can boost the power grid's efficiency and efficacy, as well as provide a solution to the energy problem and global warming.
