What is the grid-connected startup of a microgrid
Grid-connected microgrids: They have a physical connection to the utility grid through a switching mechanism at the point of common coupling (PCC); however, they can be disconnected into island mode and reconnected back to the main grid when required. 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 able to operate in grid-connected and off-grid modes. The interaction hinges on controlled exchange of power and data. Coalition stakeholders include the City of Oakridge, South Willamette Solutions, Lane County, Oakridge Westfir Area Chamber of Commerce, Good Company/Parametrix, Oakridge Trails. A microgrid is a self-contained electrical network that allows you to generate your own electricity on-site and use it when you need it most.
