Key points

  • Microgrid control strategies are classified into primary, secondary, and tertiary levels.
  • Primary and secondary levels focus on internal microgrid operation.
  • Tertiary level addresses coordinated operation between microgrids and the main grid.
  • Key control principles include droop control, model predictive control, and multi-agent systems.

Abstract

The increasing interest in integrating intermittent renewable energy sources into microgrids presents major challenges from the viewpoints of reliable operation and control. In this paper, the major issues and challenges in microgrid control are discussed, and a review of state-of-the-art control strategies and trends is presented; a general overview of the main control principles (e.g., droop control, model predictive control, multi-agent systems) is also included. The paper classifies microgrid control strategies into three levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary, where primary and secondary levels are associated with the operation of the microgrid itself, and tertiary level pertains to the coordinated operation of the microgrid and the host grid. Each control level is discussed in detail in view of the relevant existing technical literature.
