Therefore, in this research work, a comprehensive review of different control strategies that are applied at different hierarchical levels (primary, secondary, and tertiary control levels) to accomplish different control objectives is presented. . High penetration of Renewable Energy Resources (RESs) introduces numerous challenges into the Microgrids (MG), such as supply–demand imbalance, non-linear loads, voltage instability, etc. Hence, to address these issues, an effective control system is essential. However, challenges, such as computational intensity, the need for stability analysis, and experimental validation, remain to be addressed.

AC is typically used for microgrids and long-distance transmission, whereas DC powers everyday electronics. Renewable energy sources also generate DC. Inverters must switch the DC to AC before it enters the distribution grid. . DC microgrids can benefit industry and communities, but don't overlook the drawbacks. Secondly, hardware implementation has been performed to directly compare the efficiency of DC versus AC systems. Research validity and application are further improved by. . All of our electrical technology today can trace its roots back to AC. By using transformers to raise the voltage, companies could send electricity hundreds of miles away with. . However, choosing between alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) microgrids involves evaluating several factors, including efficiency at different voltage levels. The type of distribution conditions the performance of distribution line and implies different features, advantages and disadvantages in each case. utilization of DC microgrids possible [6]. In. . Advanced microgrids enable local power generation assets—including traditional generators, renewables, and storage—to keep the local grid running even when the larger grid experiences interruptions or, for remote areas, where there is no connection to the larger grid.
