Financing Microgrids in the Federal Sector
Recent high-impact events such as hurricanes and wildfires highlight the need for energy system resilience. One potential impact of these events is the loss of utility grid power to federal sites, negatively affecting the ability to carry out their missions. Depending on the need ...

A Mixed Integer Linear Programming Approach for Optimal DER Portfolio, Sizing, and Placement in Multi-Energy Microgrids
Optimal microgrid design is a challenging problem, especially for multi-energy microgrids with electricity, heating, and cooling loads as well as sources, and multiple energy carriers. To address this problem, this paper presents an optimization model formulated as a mixed-integer...

Design and Scheduling of Microgrids using Benders Decomposition
The distribution feeder laterals in a distribution feeder with relatively high PV generation as compared to the load can be operated as microgrids to achieve reliability, power quality and economic benefits. However, renewable resources are intermittent and stochastic in nature. A...

Load Control for Frequency Response A Literature Review
As electricity grids employ greater fractions of renewable energy, which introduce additional variability and uncertainty in the net-load, balancing electrical load and generation becomes more challenging. This paper reviews the literature documenting physical simulations and real...
