The microgrid simulated use a group of electricity sources and loads to work disconnected from any centralized grid (macrogrid) and function autonomously to provide power to its local area. Micro-Grid (MG) is basically a low voltage (LV) or medium voltage (MV) distribution network which consists of a number of called distributed generators (DG's); micro-sources such as photovoltaic array, fuel cell, wind turbine etc. . Resilience, efficiency, sustainability, flexibility, security, and reliability are key drivers for microgrid developments. These factors motivate the need for integrated models and tools for microgrid planning, design, and operations at higher and higher levels of complexity. These digital replicas incorporate local generation sources, storage systems, and distribution equipment, all. . They can function independently but can also work in tandem with the main grid.
