Abstract:
A microgrid control system including a plurality of distributed generators, loads and/or energy storages. The system includes a microgrid controller arrangement, and a network controller arrangement. The network controller is distributed and configured to perform measurements on the microgrid, send information to at least one other of the plurality of network controllers, and send information to the microgrid controller arrangement based on the performed measurements. The information sent to the microgrid controller arrangement relates to assets which are included in a segment of the microgrid with which the controller is associated. The microgrid controller arrangement is configured to control the plurality of assets by instructing respective converter controller of each of the plurality of assets.
