Preserving the frequency stability of new important blocks in smart grids such as interconnected microgrids, is a serious challenge. Inertia can act as a significant stability/performance index for frequency regulation in the power grids. Renewable energy sources have low inertia and mostly need...

Computer numerical control (CNC) machines are known as sensitive loads in industrial estates. These machines require reliable and qualified electricity in their often long work periods. Supplying these loads with distributed energy resources (DERs) in a microgrid (MG) can be done as an...

Economical harvesting of electrical energy on a large scale considering the environmental issues is a challenge. As a solution, Microgrids (MGs) promise to facilitate the widely penetration of renewable energy sources (RESs) and energy storage devices into the power systems, reduce system losses...

With high wind power penetration, imbalance between generation and consumption is increased, and as a consequence the frequency deviation from the nominal value will be magnified. For frequency control purpose in conventional power systems, the synchronous generators are only responsible....
