“…4 Monitoring and management of charging and discharging cycles of batteries during operation. Performance of these tasks is not a problem where PLC is used; similar features are being offered by various manufacturers [8]. The issue, however, is the maintenance of the efficiency of MPPT controllers and PLC devices in low-power systems [9].…”

“…Regarding social aspects, renewable energy fed DC microgrid is an affordable, more efficient, much faster, and easier solution to demand and supply especially in rural areas. [29][30][31] In a DC microgrid, the crucial part of a DC distribution system is the DC-DC converter. To establish a competent renewable fed DC distribution system, proper selection and design of DC-DC converter with high-voltage step up and high-power handling capability are essential.…”

Summary The use of green energy sources to feed direct current (DC) microgrids is gaining prominence over traditional centralised alternating current (AC) systems. Direct current microgrids are characterised by the use of intermediate DC‐DC converter, which acts as power conditioning units. Hence, the choice of an appropriate DC‐DC converter becomes significant as the overall system efficiency is strongly dependent on the converter's performance. This paper proposes a novel high‐gain–high‐power DC‐DC converter for DC microgrid, which is one of the significant steps forward in the development of DC microgrids. The suitability of the proposed high‐gain–high‐power DC‐DC converter is demonstrated by experimental tests of the 60 V/1.1 kV, 3 kW converter; test results validate the converter's suitability for DC distribution. A significant number of performance parameters of the proposed converter are compared with state‐of‐the‐art converter topologies demonstrating the superior capabilities of the proposed converter. This paper also portrays the potential benefits that could be reaped by trending towards DC instead of existing alternating current system. The advantages and challenges to be confronted in the foreseeable future while implementing sustainable DC microgrids are also highlighted. Finally, this paper encapsulates renewable energy fed DC microgrid system as an appropriate, technically feasible, economically viable, and competent solution for efficiently utilising the sustainable energy sources.

“…These years, many institutions and scholars have dedicated great efforts to research the technologies about solar cells [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31], rechargeable batteries [32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42] and MPPT techniques [2,[43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52][53][54][55][56][57][58]. Besides, there are also several other methods in consideration, such as to extract energy from wind shear [59][60][61][62][63] and store e...…”
