The start-up tackling Nigeria''s reliable power challenge | World
Amid an electricity crisis, many Nigerian small businesses run on petrol generators. This solar-microgrid start-up is working to connect them to clean energy.
Some simulated test systems are similar to existing microgrid test systems, but some systems have researched in different approaches. VSC based microgrid test system presents a contrasting local control approach and DC linked test system presents an approach to control the voltage at each level: at DC bus and AC bus, separately.
This paper presents a review of existing microgrid test networks around the world (North America, Europe and Asia) and some significantly different microgrid simulation networks present in the literature. Paper is focused on the test systems and available microgrid control options.
The research works on microgrids are based on either test-beds or simulations using different microgrid topologies. There are some typical microgrid configurations also reported. In this section, it is attempted to summarize the microgrid test systems reported in the literature. 3.1. Intentional islanding and microgrid experience around the world
Sophisticated and advanced control systems used in microgrids raised the need for detailed simulation and studies in RT before implementing in the field. This paper attempted to provide a comprehensive review of recent researches in RT simulation and analysis of microgrids.
Amid an electricity crisis, many Nigerian small businesses run on petrol generators. This solar-microgrid start-up is working to connect them to clean energy.
This paper presents a unique test environment in which a hardware-based microgrid environment is physically coupled with a large-scale real-time simulation framework. The setup

This paper describes efforts to integrate advanced approaches in microgrid, test-rig emulators and real time simulation into early postgraduate and undergraduate engineering education.
Dutch cyclists rode down the world''s first bike path made entirely of discarded plastic this week, in a move aimed at reducing the millions of tonnes wasted every year.
Battery energy storage systems can address the challenge of intermittent renewable energy. But innovative financial models are needed to encourage deployment.
Microgrids can step in when the main electricity grid fails. And as they can be powered by renewables, they are a sustainable and affordable option, too.
