Funded Activity Summary

Future Distribution Grids based on Reconfigurable Smart Microgrid Clusters. This aims of the project are to develop innovative paradigm shifting concepts in which power distributions grids will be self sufficient to look after themselves in the absence of power transmission infrastructure. It is expected that in future several renewable energy based distributed generators (DGs) will be dotted in power distribution systems. It is estimated that within another couple of decades sufficient number of DGs will be placed in networks so much so that they will be able to meet the load demand of domestic and commercial customers. Therefore the focus of this project is to find innovative approaches in which several microgrids, equipped with single-phase and three-phase DGs can work cohesively while supporting each other.
