An Overview of DC Microgrids and Distribution Systems
Journal Title: GRD Journal for Engineering - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
This paper presents an impression of the latest advancements in DC Distribution Systems. For the substantial increase in attention been gaining recently over the DC power systems, the researchers started exploring many issues that need to be taken account during this evolution period from existing conventional power systems to advancements in smart grids involving DC Microgrids. The researchers exertions recently were focused mostly toward the viability of implementing DC Distribution Systems on a given application, design related aspects on DC Distribution Systems such as its architecture, voltage level or the distinctive challenges connected with protection and stability of DC Power Systems. These research efforts were characterized, discussed and studied in this paper to assess where we presently existing on the changes in electrical energy systems from a staggering fully AC power system to the more flexible hybrid AC-DC power system. Additionally, the obstructions against more implementations of the DC distribution systems and few of the proposed remedies to overcome these obstacles will be discussed in this paper. One of the main difficulties to increase DC system utilization in insertion is due to the lack of proper standards in the system. The most recent issues, standardization efforts will be discussed, summarized and presented.
