State Regulatory and Policy Considerations for Increased
Microgrids are usually connected to the local electric grid (or “macrogrid”) but can operate independently, as well. A variety of regulations do not anticipate the interaction of microgrids with the
State Microgrid Policy, Programmatic, and Regulatory Framework
Many State Energy Offices and Public Utility Commissions (PUCs) have been tasked by their governors and legislatures with translating this interest into action by designing programs, policies, rules, and
Community Microgrid Technical Best Practices Guide
For a Community Microgrid to be successful, a close partnership between the CMG Aggregator and PG&E is required, and the roles and responsibilities of each partner must be carefully delineated.
Microgrid and Distributed Energy Resources Standards and
Most of the revised standards are intended to provide requirements that developers must meet for DERs connected to the public distribution network. Only recently, specific microgrid
Microgrid Overview
If a community is planning a microgrid that will connect to the main electric grid or that uses wires belonging to a distribution provider, one of those key steps will involve collaboration with the local utility.
Networked Microgrid Optimal Design and Operations Tool
These standards are intended to (1) address the technical issues and challenges of microgrid controller operation that are common to all microgrids and to (2) present the control approaches required from
A comprehensive review of standards for distributed energy resource
In our paper, we comprehensively review the standards development and current situation of microgrids and DER grid-integration issued by international organizations or individual countries.
Distribution Grid Code Framework
Hence, the use of grid codes helps facilitate the building of trust between power system participants, aiding in achieving the desired scale of DER integration and utilization.2 This report
