What is a microgrid control system?
A microgrid control system optimizes the flow of different assets to ensure the supply of electricity is stable and reliable. Hitachi Energy's e-mesh solutions are used in a football arena in Norway to integrate renewables in the urban community with microgrids and energy storage capabilities.
What is the Norwegian smartgrid centre?
The Norwegian Smartgrid Centre is a national centre of competence for smartgrids. Our vision is to create one of Europe's most dynamic research alliances that brings together industry and research partners for the development of flexible and intelligent electrical energy systems.
What is the Norwegian Smart Grid Lab?
This short video introduces the Norwegian Smart Grid Lab run by SINTEF and NTNU, Trondheim and how it can interact with another national laboratory - the Cyber Range, NTNU Gjøvik - to study and test cybersecurity for Electrical Power Systems and stations. SINTEF and NTNU are both partners in the EU project SDN µSense* focusing on this topic).
Microgrids are becoming increasingly sophisticated thanks to the integration of smart controls and artificial intelligence (AI). These technologies allow operators to analyze real-time data from distributed energy resources (DERs) such as generators, renewables, and storage systems. .

Can microgrids be developed in remote areas of the Algerian Sahara?
This paper presents a model and simulation for the development of microgrids in remote areas of the Algerian Sahara, including micro power plants, photovoltaic panels, wind farms, diesel energy and storage facilities. The climate of the Algerian Sahara, located on both sides of a tropical region, is hot, sunny and arid.
What are the applications of autonomous microgrids for remote areas?
Applications of autonomous microgrids for remote areas are mainly realised for the electrification of electrically nonintegrated areas, such as, islands, or the Algerian Sahara. A few years ago, some communities in the Sahara were supplied almost exclusively by diesel generators.
Can EMS control energy flow through a microgrid system?
An energy management strategy (EMS) was proposed to control energy flow through the Microgrid system, and an analysis was performed on real data of solar radiation, wind speed, and temperature collected from the Biskra region in southern Algeria.
What are the objectives of stand-alone Microgrid Applications?
In addition to reducing fuel costs, the main objective of stand-alone microgrid applications is to study and develop a field experience with the planning and operation of stand-alone distribution networks [ 10, 11, 12 ]. This work is the first conception of a microgrid in Algerian Sahara area. It includes diesel generators, wind and solar energy.
