What is a microgrid*?

• A localized grouping of electricity generation, energy storage, and loads

• Local generation and local consumption at low voltage

• Can operate in connected or island mode

• Can function autonomously when in island mode

• A connected micro-grid can be controlled as if it were one entity

Power quality and reliability dramatically improves through microgrid

* Wikipedia


Microgrids can be of various sizes – MWs to kWs

UCSD Microgrid – 35MW

2.8MW Fuel Cell from WTP

2.3 MW: Rooftop SPV + CPV

30 MW Cogeneration: CHP system

Ultracapacitor and Thermal storage

Smart Controls and Monitoring

2kW DC Microgrid: TERI

SunMoksha:

30kW SPV AC Microgrid

DESI Power:

35kW Biomass AC Microgrid

Tailored to Local Requirements


Why microgrids?

• Efficient, reliable, cost-effective for ensuring energy security (compared to grid)

• Interoperability with the grid, in case grid extension becomes viable

• Scalable, sustainable development through renewable sources

• Can power productive loads creating greater impact (compared to SHLS)

What is a Smart Grid?

• Wikipedia: • A modernized electrical grid that uses

analogue or digital information and communications technology to gather and act on information• Information about the behaviours of suppliers

and consumers,

• Automates the grid to improve the efficiency, reliability, economics, and sustainability of the production and distribution of electricity

• Key aspects• Electronic power conditioning and control of

production and distribution of electricity

• Data flow and information management

Microgrids and Economic Development are Symbiotic

• Microgrids attractive if average household demand in a 200HH habitat falls in Tier3

• Productive growth are important for viability of microgrids

The link between mini-grids and productive growth
