(EnergyIndustry.Net, June 13, 2017 ) A microgrid is a smaller version of a conventional centralized electrical grid. It is capable of producing power, distributing it, and controlling the flow of energy supplied to consumers within a specified geography. It can function autonomously or operate parallel with a conventional grid. However, compared with a conventional grid, the power generated by a microgrid is supplied to establishments or houses that are situated in close proximity to the plant. This reduces transmission and distribution losses, which are generally associated with centralized power generation.
