“…The low inertia of these inverter-based resources results in a lack of stability in certain operating conditions, such as severe load patterns or constant power loads [7,8]. Further, the imbalance between load demand and generated power might lead to generation curtailment or load-shedding, which requires additional energy management systems with load and generation forecasting features to deal with such conditions [9][10][11]. The interconnection between these microgrids is a promising solution to these challenges [12,13].…”

A networked microgrid is composed of multiple nearby microgrids linked together to gain additional flexibility for resilient operations. Networked microgrids collaborate to prevent power shortages in microgrid clusters by sharing critical renewable and energy storage resources. However, controlling the local resources of each microgrid, including the energy storage systems’ charging and discharging, maintaining the DC bus voltage, and even overseeing the power shared by multiple microgrids, is challenging. Therefore, a microgrid control technique and distributed energy management are used cooperatively in this study to handle the shared power between a system of networked microgrids incorporating photovoltaics and battery energy storage systems. Numerical simulation results from a networked microgrid system verify the accuracy and soundness of the suggested distributed energy management under several operating conditions, including renewable uncertainties and sequential load variations in different zones. The applicability of the suggested technique is confirmed by hardware implementation, and several operational scenarios further evaluate the proposed system on a practical two-microgrid system located in the Florida International University (FIU) testbed.
