Next-Generation Microgrids: Components, Control Algorithms, and Design guides engineers

or students through the design, control, and operation of microgrids, integrating cutting-edge

techniques and technologies with pragmatic implementation advice. This book begins by

breaking down the fundamental principles of microgrid technology, before detailed discussions

on microgrid design and the integration of distributed energy resources. Subsequent chapters

investigate optimization, energy storage systems, advanced power electronics, and critical

power quality enhancement strategies. Using a multidisciplinary approach that includes practical

questions such as regulatory guidance and communication and networking technology, the

book provides everything a reader needs to maximise the sustainability impact of microgrids.

Bridging the gap between fundamental concepts and advanced practical applications, ‘Next Generation Microgrids’ is an essential resource for the students, researchers, and industry

professionals responsible for developing and implementing this technology in the grids of the

future.
