DC Microgrids: Architecture and Challenges

Abstract

Abstract In the evolving era, microgrid wins the heart in all power fields. Among that DC configuration achieved more demand because of its less complex structure, low cost, more reliability and more power quality and last but not the least the control scheme is less complex than AC microgrid. Management of power and energy are the evolving traits adopted by researchers now a days. This paper mainly aims at the comparative analysis of different topologies, structure, and operational mode of DC microgrid. Despite the global energy crisis and the increasingly atmospheric pollution, distributed generation integration with renewable energy is becoming a potential trend in technology. Finally, attention has been paid to the recent challenges to the DC microgrid system.
