Part of the book series: Advances in Industrial Control ((AIC))

Abstract

In this chapter, the control objectives in AC and DC microgrids are discussed separately. This chapter brings together the existing AC and DC microgrid control schemes. Based on the desired control objectives, mathematical models are presented for DGs. These mathematical models are the key elements in designing control schemes for microgrids .
