Towards Self Healing Resilient Mocrogrids Using DDDAS
Abstract
Microgrids are smaller scale counterparts of smart grid systems that incorporate a cluster of workloads, distributed generation units, and energy storages. Microgrids offer tremendous capabilities to exploit the benefits from the integration of small scale generation units into low voltage electricity distribution systems. These include sustainable energy supply through distributed renewable energy generation and efficient power system operations by reducing transmission power loss and tailoring power generation to local energy demand. Therefore, microgrids provide a highly viable and promising paradigm to reduce Air Force energy costs and enable air base operations with increasingly greater independence from the electricity grid by deploying energy efficient technologies and expanding renewable energy for facility use, particularly on domestic bases.
