This course looks at the evolving concepts of microgrid power systems. Microgrid power systems are a contiguous group of generation sources and loads that may operate in parallel with the utility grid or operate independently as a standalone or “islanded” utility system. This course explains the concept in detail, including technical and economic issues with microgrids, as well as expected uses for microgrids.
