Abstract

Interconnected operation of microgrids is one of the prominent solutions to meet the increased demand of electricity by large consumer such as urban buildings. Besides, the present-day urbanization motivations further enhance the power crisis problem. So, this creates major burden on the utility grid and consequently leading to grid failures. So, these buildings can be integrated to share their generation and load appropriately. However, the microgrids deployed for all the individual buildings maybe equipped with heterogeneous energy sources and type of power generation with different capacities. So, clear understanding about the integration possibility has to be known to create above-mentioned integrating environment. Hence, this paper gives an overview of all the possible schemes for integrating microgrids of various urban community buildings.
