The future of energy is here: microgrids and demand-side flexibility programs continue to usher in innovations that trend toward a better tomorrow. Here are the top trends we expect to see in demand-side flexibility programs and microgrids in 2024:
Various policies derive microgrid development in different countries and regions. In the EU, microgrid development is accompanied with comprehensive R&D efforts supported by a series of EU's Framework Programs (FPs) .
This white paper describes the program vision, objectives, and research and development (R&D) targets in 5 to 10 years for the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Electricity (OE) Microgrid R&D Program.
In general, U.S. microgrid tools development has demonstrated some trends. First, microgrid simulation has evolved from traditional power system-based simulation and optimization to comprehensive power and thermal energy integration modeling.
To deal with this problem, this research first reviews the real-world and simulation cases of zero-carbon microgrids in recent years and classifies them into two categories, i.e., on-grid mode
