Large rural areas in some regions of the world are still grappling
with the challenge of electrification. The optimal solution is to
provide reliable energy without adding more fossil fuel plants by
using distributed renewable generation. Microgrids are part of that
solution; they are small networks of electricity users, with a
local generator that is attached to a centralized larger grid, but
which is also able to function independently. They need to be
robust and resilient in order to provide reliable power, including
in harsh climates. For remote areas microgrids have the advantage
of offering an electricity supply even if there are problems with
the larger power grid. This book focuses on the challenges of rural
electrification, particularly in poorer regions. It covers low
voltage DC distribution system for various applications including
charging of electric vehicles (EV). Written by a large team of
authors with a wide range of relevant experiences, the book
addresses microgrid architectures, converters, energy storage,
control, EV integration, business models and economic scheduling,
and the role of blockchain technology. The authors have used case
studies to provide illustrative examples of the technologies
discussed and solutions proposed.
