In this article, we will define common modes of operation for solar-plus-storage microgrid systems, explain the transitions from one mode to another, and provide a short list of key questions to ask early in the development process. . A microgrid is a group of interconnected loads and distributed energy resources within clearly defined electrical boundaries that acts as a single controllable entity with respect to the grid. It is complex and specific to each microgrid project. Microgrids have existed behind-the-meter for decades as end-users with qualified on-site. . Microgrids are small, self-sufficient energy systems and are playing an increasingly important role in grid modernization and distributed energy systems.
