A Review of DC Microgrid Energy Management Systems Dedicated to Residential Applications

The fast depletion of fossil fuels and the growing awareness need for environmental protection have led us to energy crisis. Positive development has been achieved since last decade by collective effort scientists. In this regard, renewable sources (RES) are being deployed in power system meet demand. microgrid concept (AC, DC) is introduced, which distributed resources (DERs), storage (ESS) loads interconnected. DC microgrids appreciated due their high efficiency reliability performance. Despite its significant growth, still relatively novel terms grid architecture control systems. context, an management (EMS) essential optimal use DERs secure, reliable, intelligent ways. Therefore, paper strives shed light on architecture, structure, EMS. With extensive literature survey EMSs’ role, different methods strategies related covered article. More attention centered EMS size cost optimization. A very concise analysis multiple optimization techniques presented exclusively residential applications.
