A microgrid control architecture and an edge-computing service architecture based on hybrid control theory are proposed, including standard communication protocols. The business applications (BAPPs) can be activated based on the state of the microgrids and controlled distributed energy resources (DERs).
Regions with reliable electrical quality — a key benefit of microgrids — are better able to attract new tech and manufacturing businesses. That means more jobs, higher tax revenues for the local government and more opportunities for the community to grow. For example, the Slemon Park microgrid on Canada''s Prince Edward Island (PEI) is ...

[44] prepared a review of the impacts of government policies on microgrid economics. One of the main objectives of government policies is to help grid owners achieve economic efficiency, such as minimizing capital costs and/or operating costs. A variety of policies can be implemented to achieve this objective.

Knowing the load profile, we designed a microgrid comprised of solar panels, batteries and gas or diesel-based generators for the homeowners association, or HOA (in California). We assumed the hardware would be installed at the serving sub-station. We used web-based prices for solar panels, inverters and batteries.
Those U.S. manufacturers building solar energy and battery storage equipment, including as part of microgrids, are eligible to claim a tax credit on part of production costs up until the start of 2033 as part of the the nearly $900 billion federal Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), according to proposed new guidance released this week by …

Microgrid''s market acceptability and its viability are significantly related with several economic issues. The current policy on standby charges, net metering, Microgrid''s public utility status as well as the regulatory issues on the capability of small generators to serve neighbouring customers are more akin to distributed energy resources (DERs) but not …
That means, microgrid economics only depends on the characteristics of installed DERs (i.e. annualized investment cost and generation price) and the market price. References M.
