Wellington microgrid benefits
For grid-connected areas, they enable improved resilience to grid outages and network congestion. Harnessing community energy resources can deliver both economic and environmental benefits, Professor Alan Brent explains. Comment: A new concept—the “ grid of grids ”—is revolutionising the way we think about energy. A microgrid can be thought of as a small 'subset' of the electricity grid that provides energy generation and storage to properties at a local level. They can incorporate renewable energy generation from solar panels or wind turbines. The Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority (EECA) has granted CentrePort $500,000 in funding to go towards installing shore power for Cook Strait ferries berthed at King's Wharf. CentrePort is partnering with StraitNZ Bluebridge on the project. A Microgrid is a group of energy sources located in the same local area that is in turn connected into the national grid while also being able to disconnect from it and operate.

What is a microgrid in simple terms
The Microgrid Exchange Group defines a microgrid as "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. A microgrid can connect and disconnect from the grid to enable it to operate in both grid-connected or island-mode.".

Problems with microgrid protection
The main protection challenges in the microgrid are the bi-directional power flow, protection blinding, sympathetic tripping, change in short-circuit level due to different modes of operation, and limited fault current contribution by converter-interfaced sources. Additionally, they reduce the load on the utility grid. However, given that they depend on unplanned environmental factors, these systems have an unstable generation. Microgrids help leverage these DERs to keep the power on when the normal supply is unavailable (e. There is no guarantee that behavior of DERs will be common amongst device types or even amongst vendors. This complicates control philosophies and can lead to unintended and unmodelled instabilities in the. Alternating current (AC) microgrids are the next step in the evolution of the electricity distribution systems. The first project is Electric Code (NEC) requirements, which may apply at DER sites.
