Abstract
Distributed generators (DGs) have emerged as an advanced technology for satisfying growing energy demands and significantly mitigating the pollution caused by emissions. Microgrids (MGs) are attractive energy systems because they offer the reliable integration of DGs into the utility grid. An MG-based approach uses a self-sustained system that can operate in a grid-tied mode under normal conditions, as well as in an islanded mode when grid disturbance occurs. Islanding detection is essential; islanding may injure utility operators and disturb electricity generation and supply because of unsynchronized re-closure. In MGs, an energy management system (EMS) is essential for the optimal use of DGs in intelligent, sustainable, reliable, and integrated ways. In this comprehensive review, the classification of different operating modes of MGs, islanding detection techniques (IDTs), and EMSs are presented and discussed. This review shows that the existing IDTs and EMSs can be used when operating MGs. However, further development of IDTs and EMSs is still required to achieve more reliable operation and cost-effective energy management of MGs in the future. This review also highlights various MG challenges and recommendations for the operation of MGs, which will enhance the cost, efficiency, and reliability of MG operation for next-generation smart grid applications.
