Abstract

Technological advancements in the field of power generation especially the renewable energies have made it possible to think of microgrids. This technology is proving to be beneficial in making localized areas self-sufficient in power management. Being at low-voltage (440v-11kV for 3Ø and 230V for 1Ø networks), the microgrid can deliver the needs of domestic as well as small-scale industries which together consume a few kilowatts of power. This paper focuses on a single phase grid connected system catering the needs of a few domestic as well as a small scale industry. Solar energy coupled with a storage system is considered here so that the reliability of the system is improved. Analysis will be made on the system performance illustrating the power consumption at various stages. Matlab R2015 a simulink is used to simulate the model.
