A microgrid having a plurality of electrical phases A, B & C. The microgrid includes an energy storage connected to a first phase A and a second phase B. The microgrid also includes a first single-phase distributed generator (DG) connected to the first phase and configured for injecting power into the first phase. The microgrid also includes a second single-phase DG connected to the second phase and configured for injecting power into the second phase. The microgrid also includes a first single-phase load connected to the first phase. The microgrid also includes a second single-phase load connected to the second phase. The microgrid also includes a control system configured for controlling the microgrid such that power is redistributed from the second phase to the first phase via the energy storage.
