Abstract

Power systems are steadily growing to meet the power demand. Due to the challenges arising from fossil fuel exploitation and associated pollution, researchers are focusing on distributed generations (DG). The hosting capacity of the power system can be increased by increasing the DG and energy storage device (ESD). However, usage of DG creates challenges in operation due to its stochastic nature. The electricity generated from DG causes mismatch of generation and load demand. This causes voltage and frequency deviations and eventually affects system stability. Penetration of DG with conventional power system requires strategic approach for smooth operation and control. Steady-state operation of DG connected to microgrid operates in two types of analysis: (i) large signal analysis and (ii) small signal analysis. The control strategies for island mode are classified as communication based and droop based. Presently, Internet of Things (IoT) is replacing high bandwidth lines for the purpose of effective communication. Different countries are following their own control strategies for effective control of microgrids. This chapter discusses the communication-based control strategy implemented in Gasa Island, South Korea. Taiwanese microgrid under normal and disturbance conditions implemented with multi-agent system (MAS) platform in Taiwan using agent-oriented programming is also discussed.
