Abstract

Microgrids have emerged as a feasible solution for consumers, comprising Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) and local loads within a smaller geographical area. They are capable of operating either autonomously or in coordination with the main power grid. As compared to Alternating Current (AC) microgrid, Direct Current (DC) microgrid helps with grid modernisation, which enhances the integration of Distributed and Renewable energy sources, which promotes energy efficiency and reduces losses. The integration of energy storage systems (ESS) into microgrids has garnered significant attention due to the capability of ESS to store energy during periods of low demand and then provide it during periods of high demand. This research includes planning, operation, control, and protection of the DC microgrid. At the beginning of the chapter, a quick explanation of DC microgrids and their advantages over AC microgrids is provided, along with a thorough evaluation of the various concerns, control techniques, challenges, solutions, applications, and overall management prospects associated with this integration. Additionally, this study provides an analysis of future trends and real-time applications, which significantly contributes to the development of a cost-effective and durable energy storage system architecture with an extended lifespan for renewable microgrids. Therefore, providing a summary of the anticipated findings of this scholarly paper contributes to the advancement of a techno-economic and efficient integration of ESS with a prolonged lifespan for the use of green microgrids.
