Abstract

The microgrid consists of a group of interconnected loads and various energy sources such as wind and solar, which are operated in amalgamation to the main grid for sharing of the connected load. The unified operation of different energy sources increases the overall reliability and overall operational efficiency of the whole system. The microgrid always consists of the main source, which is responsible for supplying the main power. Thus, the microgrid has the primary grid and other DGs connected to it and thus provided the microgrid's various modes of operation, such as grid-connected mode, islanded mode, and dual-mode. The microgrid can be switched to multiple methods, and this switching requires a good pattern. The paper describes modes of operation and control strategies required for the proper switching to various methods. The variation of the Irradiance value affects the active and reactive power at the PCC or the bus. At low Irradiance, the load is fed by both grid and the solar PV. At the high Irradiance, the solar PV's output power increases, and thus the load demand is majority filled up by the solar PV. The variation of the Irradiance value affects the active and reactive ability at the PCC or the bus.
