Abstract

DC microgrids have been gaining a continually increasing interest over the past couple of years both in academia and industry due to the provision of numerous benefits in comparison with AC ones. The most important ones include higher reliability and efficiency, simpler control and natural interface with renewable energy sources, and electronic loads and energy storage systems. With rapid emergence of these components in modern power systems, the importance of DC in today’s society is gradually being brought to a whole new level. In this study, first, the power management issues in a DC microgrid is discussed. Subsequently, a review on available techniques used for addressing the control and protection challenges microgrids is provided. Apart from describing the most relevant options presented to date and classifying them in specific groups, the most important benefits and drawbacks of each approach are presented. Finally, some conclusions and research directions for implementation of future DC microgrids are pointed out
