TL;DR: The CIGRE C6.22 Working Group, Microgrid Evolution Roadmap as discussed by the authors has recently finalized its first Technical Brochure, which describes the main elements required to justify, develop, and implement viable microgrids, which the Group defined as follows: Microgrids are electricity distribution systems containing loads and distributed energy resources.

TL;DR: The economic potential of DERs coordinated in a microgrid to provide reactive power and voltage support at its point of common coupling is outlined.

TL;DR: The CIGRE C6.22 Working Group, Microgrid Evolution Roadmap as mentioned in this paper has recently finalized its first Technical Brochure, which describes the main elements required to justify, develop, and implement viable microgrids, which the Group defined as follows: Microgrids are electricity distribution systems containing loads and distributed energy resources.

TL;DR: In this article, an overview of the current work in Portugal and in the USA on the sustainability-sound technology choice and operation planning of integrated community-scale microgrids is done in this paper.

TL;DR: These models as well as the SaaS architecture employed by LBNL researchers to provide asset scheduling services to UC Davis are described and the peak demand, emissions, and cost implications of the asset operation schedule and investments suggested by this optimization model are analysed.
