Microgrid Policy and Island Grid Modernization → Scenario
A microgrid is a localized group of electricity sources and loads that can function autonomously, connected to or separate from the traditional grid. For an island, this capability moves
Through the use of an island microgrid (IM) system, local energy resources which islands are usually rich in, e.g., wind and solar, can be utilized more efficiently. Integrating local energy resources, not only reduces the cost of the IM system but also enhances post-fault reliability for local consumers.
Island microgrid (IM) systems offer a promising solution; however, optimal planning considering diverse components and alternatives remains challenging. Using China's Yongxing Island as a case study, we propose a novel indicator system integrating economic, resilience, energy, and environmental dimensions.
In this paper, we propose a novel resilience-oriented energy and load management framework for island microgrids, integrating a multi-objective optimization function that explicitly minimizes load curtailment, energy losses, voltage deviations, emissions, and energy procurement costs while maximizing the utilization of renewable energy sources.
Microgrids are an important solution to tackle the energy challenges of islands. Yongxing Island has a tropical monsoon climate with long annual sunshine hours and is surrounded by a vast sea area, making it suitable for utilizing solar, wind, and wave energy power generation technologies.
